We are heartbroken to hear that our friend Gary has passed. Gary was a great friend, loving husband, father and PaPa. We were truly blessed to have counted him and Mitzi as friends, but consider them as family. We are praying for Mitzi and the family. Heaven is sweeter knowing that Gary is there. We look forward to seeing him again.

I would like to deeply express my condolences to the family of Gary. Gary was an excellent boss and even better man. Gary took a chance on me and hired me as a young mechanic for the City of Charleston and allowed me to learn from some of the best. Gary was always kind and fair. I owe a great deal of my success to Gary and am extremely thankful for the things I learned from him. May God comfort his loved ones as he will be sorely missed.
