Gary was a father, a husband, a brother, a grandfather, a friend, a surrogate father of sorts to me for many years, a vet, a hero, and so much more. He will be greatly missed. My heart goes out to his daughter Diane (my childhood best friend), his wife Yong, his son-in-law James, and his granddaughters Alyssa & Jada. Gary has finally been reunited with his son Bill who was taken away far too young & his mother. I love you all & I'm here.
