When I was a little kid I use to come look for Julie to hang out we was single digits. Gary would tell me with a smile on his face , he would say" you come lookin for Julie and you would say where's jewel at can I talk to jewey it would make me laugh he saw me grow up like that and reminded me I had funny accent when I was little. Gary always cracking jokes is how I remembered him he was a good guy!
