Dear Ann words can not say how sadden I was to learn of Gary's death he was a special and wonderful person. My mind went back to the day he took you to see the house that he was going to make into your home that was overgrown and I remember him telling you not to worry everything would be perfect when he finished and it was.
I admired how much he loved you and the girls then the boys. He will be there with you every step of the way even now. If ever I can do anything please let me know. Please know that you, the girls and the boys are in my thoughts and prayers.
