Gary was a happy, kind, caring friend. He would always greet me with a big smile, asking how I was. He loved Beverly and his family and he loved the Lord! He will be greatly missed. Praying for all. God bless. :heart:

Beverly I am so sorry for your loss. I am so sad too, I really always liked Gary. He was always so kind to us all through the years. I love the video, that's how I remember him young and always working on a car. He did restore some beautiful cars! I am so happy he is with his Paula again and his mom and dad. God has such a sweet plan for us, we belong to him whether in life or death. I hope to see you Friday if it's not flooding. Praying for you and Jeffery and Linda, Sean and the grandkids.
