Marie and family. My Dad and I are very sorry for your loss.
Gary was truly one of a kind. The kind of man that would fix your car without even telling you (true story). He was always smiling, even when his beloved leafs were losing. I'm really going to miss his spirit and smile every time I go visit my Dad (Gary's friend and neighbor). Thank you for the good memories. Dad and I will miss you very much.
Our heart and prayers are with Marie and the family at this very difficult time.
