Gary was one of a kind. He had one of the biggest hearts that a person could have. He was part of my life growing up and I couldn’t have been more thankful for being privileged to know such a wonderful man. It is sad that he has passed away, but he is no longer in pain and is in a better place. My deepest condolences to his family during this difficult time. Heaven certainly gained another angel. Rest in peace Gary, you will truly be missed. Love you.
My condolences to you and your family at this time. Gary was a great classmate. May God be with you at this time.
Sorry to hear of the passing of Gary. I remember him as a very hard working young man during his time at Saegertown Manufacturing Corp.
Your sense of humor will always be remembered. Dawg! 1987
I hadn’t known Gary until several years ago when he did some carpentry work for me. It didn’t take long to become friends. I will remember him as one of the good guys with a strong professional work ethic. I will miss the conversations we used to have.
So long, friend.
Dear Holly, Our hearts and prayers are with you at this time. He was so young.
I am truly sorry for your loss.
Gary and I were good friends back in the early 90s. we spent a lot of time together at work and after work. I moved away in 2000 and lost touch with him but often wondered about him. He was a great friend with a big heart. I have missed his friendship and sad for the loss.
I have a lot of great memories with Gary and he will be missed by all.
My heart goes out to all of his friends and family.
While I did not have the opportunity to know Gary, I feel honored to have been able to get to know his family in his final days and I will always be grateful to them for allowing me into their hearts during a time of great tragedy in their lives. God Bless the family, and Holly my prayers are with you.
I am very sad to hear of Gary’s death. I hope in time the grief will lessen and all will have cherished memories. My condolences to all.
I am sorry for your loss. May family and friends give you comfort, and also God’s Word.
