Gary.:  You have been a continuous source of joy and laughter and love for my family, especially my brother Henry. I know your bond is real and deep. I am so grateful to have you and Cyn in my life. I can hear your voice talking to Henry saying, "Hey,  brother" or "What's up, my man?" And your kindness and caring  has always shines through. I love you. We all love you. I know you have your wings already and are flapping around making everyone smile. I pray that I can hear your voice always. If so, I will always smile too. Love and light, Gary. xo Tammy

So very sorry Cousin Cynthia and all the Tuckosh and Gannon families on the loss of Gary.  We always had a good time with Gary when we got together for weddings and other occasions.   Such a nice guy he will be truly missed.  

I’ve only known “Uncle“ Gary for several months, but in that time I became accustomed to the ease and comfort  he provided me in any given situation. 

During  family gatherings, for which I was grateful to be included, we would nod at one another several times throughout with unspoken kinship about something funny or ridiculous that no one else seemed to share. 

Although we never discussed it, I believe Gary and I shared a past tribulation that not everyone can empathize with; I think that’s why I liked him so much from the very beginning. 

I will regret not learning more about his life as the years pass on, but I consider myself lucky for getting to spend the time with him I did. What I did learn, was that Gary was an  innately good man, and thats a rare and special trait to have in my experience. 

To Cynthia and the rest of the Tuckosh family, your tragic loss is in my heart, and I will keep you all in my prayers.

PS - Don’t worry Gary, when the time is right, I’ll assume loving and gentle care of your magnificent white fox. 

I will miss you brother …..I have known you since I’ve been 16……thank you for the love that you have shared with us all ….you truly are  a man that has left his mark on many people….your love will stay within us forever…….we are at a loss without your kind laugh and words …..you have made life so much better with your presence……love you Gary !

Immense sadness for the sudden passing of my Uncle Gary.  A man who was always there for you, no matter what you needed.  A man who didn’t ask for much in return other than spending time.  He was loved by anyone who knew him.  The void is big and my heart aches.

When I was around 8, Uncle Gary taught me how to fish. We went to the beach, early morning and picked up bait and some waters for us. He went in to detail about every step, how to cast, even how to add bait on the hook. When we caught a fish, he would make sure to put the fish back in the water, being very careful to make sure the fish lived. I caught my first fish that day, thanks to Uncle Gary. It was my favorite memory with him, and I will never forget it.
