Mr. Gary was a heck of a 42 player, a real nice guy, and I’m glad I got to call him a friend. The domino table won’t be the same without him. My sympathies to the family. RIP my friend. ~Gene Bennett

We were truly heart broken to hear of the passing of this Great Man. Gary was so friendly and would do anything without even asking. He did so much for the Chireno Horse Camp and it will never be forgotten.
R.I.P. our good friend. We will All ride again soon.

He was a heck of a rider, both horses and motorcycles. He and I worked on the power grid at Chireno, a place he loved as much as anywhere. He is the one that mapped out the trails with his GPS. I will miss him greatly. Rest in peace, Gary, rest in peace...

Gary was a great guy! Lots of fun and a jokester. Enjoyed our motorcycle trips together , we had a great time at the flat track racing in Milwaukee a couple of years ago. I as always impressed at how he could ride that trike . My condolences and prayers to his family, he will be missed .

in honor of Gary.

To the family: Oh my, what a blessing it has been to have had the opportunity of knowing your dad, working with him at Texas Eastman for years, enjoying visiting him at Eastman retiree luncheons & most of all...knowing him as our “brother in Christ” and we’ll see him again in heaven when Jesus calls us home. Praise the Lord for the “peace within” He gives us when we accept the Lord as our own personal Savior.:pray:
(ROM 10:9-13, John 3:3, 6:44, Rev 1:5)
With sincere deepest sympathy,
