To all of Garry's loved ones,
I did not know Garry well, but in the short time he lived with my sister and her son, I found him to be a gentle man.
My sincerest sympathy and prayers on the passing of Garry. It has been a long struggle for him and those who love him. May he rest in peace.

So sorry to hear the news, but glad that Garry is now at peace after his recent struggles. I will certainly miss him on my future visits to Iowa. He was a great guy whose company I always enjoyed. I will miss him for sure. RIP my friend.
