I loved my cousin, Gary. Even though we rarely saw each other in the past several years, our childhood was filled with so many memories and they all bring a smile. We lived with Gary's parents when my mom was waiting to give birth to my brother so she could be close to the hospital in Peoria. We spent holidays on the farm taking turns picking on each other and just having fun. Gary spent hours on legal work for my siblings and myself and our mother when we needed it. He was everything one could ask for in a cousin and a friend. We all teased each other unmercifully over the years, but we all enjoyed it. I think it is no surprise to Gary that my password is "comicbooks" and I'm sure he's getting a laugh out of it. Heaven is much brighter with Gary there. Priscilla
