Dear Kathy and Family,
We wish you our condolences and love at Garry's homegoing, and remember fondly sharing Sunday school and other classes with you and him.
The Bible says we do not sorrow as do those who have no hope, for we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and that God will bring with him that have fallen asleep in Jesus, as Garry now has done. Also, Garry and all others who have gone on ahead of us get to go FIRST when Jesus comes again. And then at last we will join them.
This is our great hope! May the Lord bless you and your family as we look forward to that day.

We are so sorry for your loss. Garry was a great friend to Gary especially. Gary enjoyed so much talking to him in the lobby every Sunday morning and missed him when he wasn't at church. They had great conversations. Garry was a great man and will be missed. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family.
