Man it's going on 7 years and there is not a day that we do not discuss you and the way you made us all laugh. If heaven had a phone I would just like to tell you how much your oldest niece loves you and your grand-daughter Tori Lee looks just like you. Always on my mind until the end of time. Sending all my love

Gary,
If this was only a dream, but it's not. I am going to miss you so very much. There is not a day that will go by that you are not in my thoughts, and in my heart.
My brother Gary was one of a kind. When God called him home, he said YES. I was there to witness that last moment, it will be a day that I will forever cherish in my heart.
I love you so very much, and I am going to miss you, but I know God has you in his arms.
Your sister Linda. No more pain. All I can say is that even tho you are not here, you are living in the SPIRIT.

My brother was a devoted husband to his wife Jennie, and a wonderful father to his children.
There are no words to describe him because he was awesome.
My name is Linda Russell, and I am the only sister he had. I miss him dearly, there is not a day that goes by that I don't think about him.
I know he is a peace with God.
I will always love him and one day we will all see him again.
Never good-byes, but until we meet again.
Love you,
Your Sister

We met Gary many years ago due to our nephew Little Gary. Gary was always smiling and asking about others well being. We have always seen him happy and smiling and living life to the fullest. He was a father figure to many with pride and maturity.
To Little Gary, We know you are hurting baby boy. Seek Prayer with God because he will guide your understanding and healing (and Roscoe)
To Gary's Wife and family, We are truly sorry for your loss of this loving and awesome man. May God brings peace and healing to you.
Rest in peace our friend.

Words are not enough to express my sympathy to Gary's family and friends. I was Gary's insurance agent for the last 3 years. My days were always lightened when he called. His first question was always "how are you doing today?" even though he was working hard and struggling to beat the ugly disease inside him. I'll miss talking to him. Jeannie, if you need anything, please call me.
