Good Morning Gary,
It sure has been lonely around this house without the laughter and the jokes that you and Jerry shared. You left behind some very broken hearted family, friends and co-workers. We thank you so much for being a part of our lives, and we are so sorry for your devastated family. What a real loss this is, but we know you are in Gods Hands.
God Bless you Gary and your family.

No words can express my sorrow, I loved Gary so much. I feel as though a part of my heart is missing. Gary was an exceptional man on so many levels. He will never be forgotten and I was blessed to have known him and shared a part of his life. His legacy will live on through his wife, children and friends.

I worked with Gary at Apex a few years ago. I have brought up his name with my current employer many times as how I would love to have him be a part of our organization. He was such a good man and a professional genius. Even though I have not seen nor talked to him in quite some time, he was someone that you don't forget. I am very sorry for your loss.
