Gary and I met when we were in High School in our hometown of Endicott, NY. We both moved away when we were young. After a decade or so you know who your real childhood friends are. Most of my hometown friends lost touch with me. I knew Gary and I would always keep in contact. He always did. I'll always miss him ...

Gary was such a nice man. I will miss him. When my father was alive he always made sure to stop in and see us at Christmas time. I have known Gary all my life. I never saw him so over the moon for anyone like he was for his wife. I'm so sorry for her and all of the family.

I met Gary when I first joined the MOX Project. Gary was willing to help anyone and never expected anything in return. I will miss him and I know he is in Heaven with his loved ones.

I always looked forward to working with Gary. He was so kind and had such an inner spark. He was a great motivator leading our wellness/excercise sessions at lunch time. He has left a lasting positive impression on me and am thankful for having known him.
