I met Gary in 1973. My husband and Gary were working for Hammontree and Simmons. We enjoyed spending time with Gary and Paula. We both had our oldest boys. Then when we were expecting again Gary Don was born and a week later our Danny was born.
We always had great times together. I actually got to be at he and Debbie’s wedding.
He was an amazing man and friend. Tell all our loved ones we will be there soon.❤

Eternal rest grant unto Gary, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Gary was always one of my favorite cousins. I will never forget all the good time we had. All the pestering he did to me never got old. He always made me laugh. My deepest sympathy to all the family. ❤

What a sad day....I've known Gary and his former wife Paula for many years. We all attended church together..camped and fellowshipped with them...our daughter married their son Kevin. My granddaughters Myranda and Tori were born out of that marriage. Grieved together when Paula died and then Kevin. Gary was a special person...funny..caring and yes a big tease. Love and prayers for the family left behind.

I remember when Keith and Gary went on Royal Rangers Camp out and when we all of us went to Roaring River with the youth and we all had fun he is up there with Keith fishing and having a good time
