Worked with Gary at Blanchat Machine during my college years. Seemed always happy. A prankster if I remember but always in good fun. Enjoyed his company. I pray God will comfort Vickie and family.
Vicky and family: I am sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you at Gary’s passing. Bless you all.
Being the same age as Natalie and her cousin, I spent many nights over at her house. Gary & Vicky always went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed…basically spoiled us. Uncle Gary was always smiling and would be totally present when you talked. He made you feel heard, and of course, loved. Vicky was blessed to call him husband & Natalie & Becky were blessed to call him Dad. We were all blessed to know & love Gary!
Give David, Grandpa, and Grandma a hug for me
Condolences to Vicky and family.
Vicky and Family, I am so very sorry for the loss of your husband, father, and grandfather. Gary was a special person; he and I had some good airplane discussions. I know he will be missed greatly. May God cover you with His comfort and peace. Arleta
