  1. Sorry for the loss of Gary. He was one of the youth at Oakdale with my older daughters. He always seemed to be happy and loved to laugh

  2. So sorry to hear of Gary’s passing. He was such a character back in high school. Thoughts and prayers are with the family.

  3. Prayers for Kay and Michael. Gary you know we love you. We will miss your smiles,hugs and love. We will find comfort knowing you are in Gods arms.

  4. My fondest memories of Gary cannot be replaced. Oh how I loved going over to Kaye’s and spending the night and eating her mother’s cooking…and Gary was just the happiest , smiling boy. Then there was nothing like ordering a hot dog at Central Cafe and he came out every time and gave me a hug…no matter how busy he was in the back. He always met me with a smile. To Kaye, Michael, Debbie, Jonathan and other family member who I may not have had the pleasure of meeting, my heart is with you as you go through life knowing Gary is no longer around. He is with Jesus and the beautiful angels. Love to you all.

  5. Gary was always so sweet and loving. He always loved my grandmothers cooking and spoke of it all the time over the years. RIP Cousin. Prayers for Kay, Michael and family.
