Margaret, Quentin, Cindy and family…my heart aches for you. I just got to know Gary the last ten years ago as a next-door neighbor and he was a great neighbor for sure! Loved just talking to him in the driveway or yard listening, to his stories about being stationed in Korea and our mutual fascination of the Indy 500! I will miss those moments and blessings upon you during this difficult time!
