1958 - 2013
 II Corinthians 5:8 "We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord." On February 20, 2013, Gary Paul Bourn was ushered into the presence of his Savior at CAMC Teays Valley Hospital after a long fought battle with Myotonic Dystrophy. He was preceded in death by his brother John J. Bourn II, paternal grandparents John B. Bourn and Hallie Meadows Bourn, maternal grandparents James Harlin Skidmore and Dollie Davis Skidmore.

In addition to his parents he is survived by his wife, Barbara Legg Bourn; one son, Anthony Marshall Bourn of Lynchburg, VA; and two stepdaughters, Laura and Christy Bourn of Milton. Gary was an avid Nascar fan, a NRA member and defender of the Second Amendment. He was a member of Crossroads Baptist Church in Huntington and claimed by Fellowship Baptist Church in Barboursville. Gary was a 1976 graduate of Nitro High School. He attended Bob Jones University and was a graduate of Liberty University. He was a loving husband and father who will be sorely missed. A special thanks to the staff and physicians at CAMC Teays Valley Hospital. Visitation will be from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday at Wallace Funeral Home, Milton. Funeral services will be conducted at 11 a.m. Saturday, February 23, 2013, at Wallace Funeral Home, Milton, by Dr. Glenn Mathews, Rev. John Bourn, Dr. John Duffy and Dr. Jerry Warren.
