Dear Virginia and Beverly,
I just received your brother's obituary from my mother. I was stunned and so sad, but he certainly made the most of his life doing wonderful work for so many people. Only the good die young.
Thinking of you.

Gary,
Never overthought much. Always had plans and took control of his life. Kind, compassionate, sardonic, daring, and fun. My dearest, last remaining light.

Dear Virginia,
It's been many years since our lives were lived at 12th and Ferry Sts., but my mom always reminded me of how I would run to the door as a little kid when Gary delivered the newspaper.
I remember him as a kind and wonderful person. I am so sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Sandy Mazzeo Williams

Remembering when Gary worked with my father at Farr's shoe store in Easton and also getting a ride from him to downtown after school.

We have known Gary since the 70's. He has been a dear friend and delight to both of us. On our recent trip to Florida, we laughed most of the 3 days we spent with him. He was loved and will be missed.
