Laura and Lil Gary-  There are no words to express my sadness for your loss. I know you will miss him, as you do dear Shirley.  May your memories sustain and comfort you in the coming days.  I remember so many happy fun times with all of you guys and my Amy.  Appreciate every day for the wonder it holds.

So sorry to hear about your dad Laura and little gary my thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this sad time I really enjoyed working with your parents and grandmother brenda simmons nutter

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Gary will be genuinely missed by friends and family.  We had many happy family gatherings over the years. I am so sorry, Nataliya, for your loss and pray God will help you through this very difficult time and bring you peace. Your loving cousin, Shirley Waidmann

Gary's sudden passing was a terrible shock to all of his friends in Naples Florida and his former neighbors at Eagle Creek Golf & Country Club. We will truly miss his humor and witty remarks.  Even after Gary & Natalya moved to Bonita Springs we were happy to have them return for events and just to visit.  Gary was truly a brilliant businessman and we all enjoyed hearing about the progress on his latest project. He served our country with distinction and we shall always remember his loyalty and friendship.  Gary's passing was much too soon.

Many of us that graduated with him will miss him greatly-it was always a thrill to see the two of you to come to our school events-it was too soon to see him go

Gary was genuinely respected by everybody who knew him, not only for his business accomplishments, but also for his kind soul. He leaves behind friends and family all over the globe who will miss him greatly.

I am so very sorry to hear this!

What a shock!!

I am thankful that we had breakfast together a little over a month ago when he was in town for the class reunion.

My deepest condolences to his family!

He will be very much missed by so many people!

Oh, Gary, how we will all miss you.  You came to all our class events and we loved hearing about your latest travels and business ideas.  You left us way too soon.  

Nataliya, I am so very sorry for your loss. Though you were only with Gary for a short while, I am truly grateful that he had you to add love and joy to his life.  I can't begin to tell you how much he will be missed.  I know many of us would consider it an honor to help you in any way we can.  We love you too.  Please call on us.  I can put you in touch with many of his classmates who I know will be glad to share memories.  I knew Gary since grade school when he and Ben Jarrett would ride their bikes over to visit Sue Flack and me. He made us feel so special. 

May God's angels surround you and may God pour out his peace and love over you.  May he fill you with strength and courage in the coming days and weeks, and may he replace the empty places in your heart with fond memories of Gary forever.  God bless you. Sheri
