So sorry and my condolences to the family. I worked with Gary for over 35 years at the sandpaper and when we both retired we kept in touch thru car shows and cruise nights. Gary always had a smile on his face and every time he would meet a friend it was like he hadn't seen you in years even if it was only a couple of weeks. He will be sadly missed and he knew a lot of people. RIP good buddy. Know that you touched a lot of people during the short time you were here.
Thinking of you!

I had the privilege of growing up next to Gary and Bernice. All the memories and fun times our family’s have shared are priceless. I’m especially greatful for Gary and Bernice escorting me to my wedding in his old ford car and then driving my husband and I away. It’s truly a special memory I will cherish. My deepest condolences to Bernice,Steve, Shelley and families. Love Hollie, Jeff and Bryson Rowell
