I will never forget Gamy Lotuaco. He was one of my father's best friends (Sam Price). Gamy was a big part of my life when I was in my early 20s. We would run together and he would ice skate with my dad. He was a wonderful influence in my father's life. My whole family loved Gamy. My deepest sympathy goes to the family. I especially remember Dona Flory.
Sincerely, Donna Price

Reta and I offer our sincere condolences to Dona and Gamy's family at this difficult time. Gamy and I covered for one another quite often throughout our medical careers in the Kansas City area. He was a swell guy!
