I have known Gary for many years and he was always a gentleman. He was good friends with my brother-in-law
and my brothers back in their racing days. Reconnected on FB a few years ago and we often exchanged pleasantries or he would comment on my posts. Will miss his presence. My sympathy to his family.
We love Gary, I loved to see him at all the cruises his giant Taz in the front seat was always my favorite, he will be missed dearly!
Gary, “Taz” was my Cousin and a friend going back to my younger days when we would play cowboys and Indians in our neighborhood. Grew up to join a car club, but at a cruise we both.were unhappy about the club so I said we could start our own, Gary looked at me and said ok you start it, and that was the start of the Pharaohs. Had a great time as members for 22 years. Gonna miss my Cuz, he was a great guy.
Worked with Gary for 20 plus years at us tape and label he was such a good guy always friendly to me always say good morning we became friends on Facebook after he retired he’s going to be very dearly missed
