Gary was the best brother-in-law I could have had. We had such a good time together. I remember when I was 16 going to Danville to watch him bowl. He had such a pretty curve and was a real good bowler. He belonged in a league and was enjoyable watching him bowl. He loved his kids especially Susie. He loved to have family gatherings. He was the slowest eater I have ever seen. Lv him

He loved to talk about his playing football, basketball, and running track in high school. I would stay with them in my teens and would laugh all night. He enjoyed playing poker with his friends and never new a stranger. I'm a much better person knowing him. I miss him alot.

Miss my dad more than words can express. He never had a stray animal and would feed the hitch hikers if seen. He worl eighty hours a week with four hours of sleep a day to supprot his family. When he got home every morning, he would do all his figuring and would be able to tell you how much he brought home down to the cent after taxes.

He would love it when one of us would walk in so he could tell us about his long night journey. His talent to the piano was un beleivable. Heard many times he was one of the best. He loved Rag Time "Scott Joplin". His favorite day of the week was sunday when everyone was welcome to come and joinus in meal and good conversation. He never ran out of Jokes.

If any of the jokes consist of vowel language, he would ask that I leave the room.He always told me fall was his most deppressing time of year because everything was dying away. He was amazed by the stars. One of the last things us Kids bought him was a telescope. His favorite wood was mahagomy. He loved to refurnish pianos. His favortie time of year was mushroom season.

He always took his vacation time from work that time of year. I really wish his grandkids could have met him. he would have been soo proud. The way he felt about Kinman was unbeileivable. He could see the love in his eyes and touch, so sad he passed when Kinman was only a year and a half. I know he looks down on us from time to time and smiles:) I could go on and on. Miss and love ya dad!

The greatest man I have ever known. The greatest father there ever was. I miss him so much and was blessed to have called him my dad. I have so many great memories to hold close in my heart until we meet again.

To the greatest friend ,father ,husband and supporter their could possibly be. We love you with all our hearts.Still miss you everyday.I hear your music in my heart everyday.
