Gary's obituary
The family of Gary Lee Kline wishes to announce the passing of their beloved husband, step-father, and grandfather. Gary passed on Sunday morning, March 16th, 2025. He leaves behind his dear wife Barbara, who he took care of for many years, even while his own health declined. He is also survived by his children through marriage: Cory Giles, Carol Beupain, Toni Edwards, and Tina Parilla, and his many grandchildren, and great grandchildren that adored him.
It's commonly said that Gary never met a stranger, and was always willing to lend a helping hand. He could fix anything, find a way to make anything work. That made him a valued member of the United States Air Force and helped him excel at nearly 40 years of aircraft repair and maintenance. He always put others before himself, never complaining. Even through the most difficult of procedures or treatments, he'd always wave off concerns with a smile.
Finally, Gary was never a bore. Everyone agrees that he was the life of the party, always dragging others to the dance floor with him. He enjoyed bingo, old westerns, a good oldies radio station. And he knew his way around a Margarita menu. Gary loved enjoying laughter and conversation over Mexican food with his sweet wife and their family and friends. He will forever be remembered as a bright light of selflessness and fun.
