The most vivid memory I have of Uncle Tommy (George) was the time we were visiting the McGarry's in Biloxi and wanted to watch Bevis & Butthead... Tommy had us (Ross & I) thoroughly convinced, that when the T.V. stopped working later that day and they had to get a new one, that it was Bevis & Butthead that broke it!

Loretta and family, Pat contacted me and told me about Tom's passing. My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to all of you. I only met you and Tom once while you were in Seattle headed for Alaska, but you are a part of my McGarry clan, so I have kept in touch mainly with Pat. My prayers continue with you, Loretta.

Loretta and family, I am deeply sorry for the loss of your husband and father. Growing up, hanging out, and having fun with your family over our parents military career was fun to say the least. I will always remember your husband and father as a man with strong morales, exceptional work ethic, and a drive to succeed. I always looked up to Mr. McGarry and respected him for who he was. You all were blessed to have him as part of your family. Please know I share your pain in your loss and my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of grieving.
