I worked many games with Gary as a softball umpire. He was always a pleasure to work with. We shared much laughter together. A good person.

I´m so very sorry for your loss, I knew Gary from Deka. We worked together in Kutztown and had just talk to him about losing my fiancé Rick in Sept 2021, which we had all carpooled when we were in Kutztown. I will keep you in my prayers. Sending hugs
