Sue, I am very sorry for the loss of Gary. I just heard about this about 5 minutes ago. Kim sent me an email about it and she lives in SC. I hope you always think of the good things and the family you and Gary made over all these years. Sorry I missed the service.
Sue and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I did not know Gary, but have heard how very hard he fought and struggled to live and love for his family, and did not give up. You were blessed to have him in your lives and to know his love, treasure those memories and know he is no longer suffering pain but in a beautiful pain free place. I pray you can find peace and comfort as you mourn. Sincerely Pattie Black
I’m so very sorry for your loss….My prayers n sympathy go out to you and all the family…

So very sorry for your loss. Words can not express our Sincerest Sympathy.
So sorry for your loss! From all the stories I’ve heard and from what I’ve seen, he was a great man! Love you all! Rachel, Dustin and Tyler
