We are celebrating Gary's life on Saturday, April 13,2024 with a memorial at our house because he loved living here! Gary always wanted a home with family. We did our best at providing Gary with everything he wanted and could ask for! The last 5 years of Gary's life, he had many complications and obstacles to get through, but he did it! He was healthier the last few days of his life than he had been in a long time, which made his passing such a shock to all of us. Instead of seeing Gary struggle, we got to see him at his best in a long time. Although, he never got rid of the walker, he sure tried every day to heal and get better.
