Sadly Missed and always remembered by your friends at home in Banbridge. We last saw each other in Feb. You called at my door with a bunch of flowers in one hand and a case of beer in the other, just typical! We drank to the earlier hours and talked of old times and new. Did your Mum ever get the flowers? Always remembered by Barry & Ciara McConville and family.

God bless the Rooster. He was a fun-loving, hard working, easy lad who was loyal to friends and proud of his family. A hard worker who made things look easy, always ready for the double take, an avid reader like his Dad. My sadness and sympathy to his family and friends for his loss, he was so young and packed a lot in his wee life, a wild child, god bless his spirit. The world is smaller than we thing and Gary was a great touchstone of many communities. Slan abhaile.

Paul and Liz, we were saddened to hear of Gary's passing. Our hearts and prayers go out to you at the loss of your son. They say there is no greater loss than that of a child. Gary was far too young to leave us, God must have wanted him with Him.



Our condolences to you and your other children and family at this time of grief.
