Absolutely - remember his smile, remember how he made us smile - Didn't you and he get placed in the front row of more than one class together at AR - whenever we were alphabetized and John Hatley and I would sit in the middle and wonder what you two were up to.

Gary and I went to Washington Grade School together. He was always making me laugh and getting me in trouble. He was a good friend who will be remembered with a smile.

God Bless You, Gary.
