Thank you Lord for the gift of Gary and his love for you. I was blessed to have known him since the early eighties. He and Bobbi were faithfull supporters of our music theater. His love for music (especially southern gospel), made it a joy to perform for him. Dear God, bless his family with comfort and peace during this time. I loved his heart,his joy and that smile!!!
