I remember Mr. Gary as always being sweet and warm in his own uniquely amusing way, always fun to be around with making my mom and I smile and laugh; he surely is a light-hearted fellow. My fondest memories of Mr. Gary and his wife Mrs. Carolyn are during their visit here in Belize about thirteen years ago when I was around 12 years old. We had wonderful conversations at dinner and went swimming in the cool river in the jungle and visited caves at Jaguar Paw. They are a sweet couple that I truly enjoyed having moments shared. I will always remember how they both made me feelvery special for I was a shy and quiet young girl. I fondly remember that whenever he was making a point, he ended with, Capish! I am glad that I had the chance to visit him two years ago - the same sweet, funny and warm Mr. Gary as ever. I enjoyed every moment with him. Heartfelt condolences to his family and friends... We will all miss you Mr. Gary and forever cherish our shared memories with you in all of our hearts.

It is with a sad heart that we learned of Gary's passing. He was a true friend to many of us in the 1967 class of Longview High School and his cheerful nature and ever present smile will be sorely missed. Our condolences and prayers to family and friends. Dobbs and Sharon Rogers
