    I will always remember Gary for being a very happy guy with a great attitude! He never complained and was always fun to work with. We would exchange stories and he would always make me laugh. He was a family man, who loved his family and always talked about his wife Cheryl, he always referred to her as his sweetie and his daughter Amanda . He will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to Gary's family.

    Not sure what to say , never really good at this . We met at the Westin many years ago and the one thing that always stood out was the smile and laughter you always brought with you when entering the shop , there never seemed to be a bad day for you at all . You definitely treated me like a son and I will truly miss that but will always remember the smiles and laughter you brought to all .
    Miss you my friend .

    Gary - your effervescent smile, fun loving nature, kind heart, and never ending happiness will be sorely missed by me and my family. We are definitely sending a wonderful angel to heaven - I imagine that you are in the arms of your mom and Johnny right now. We will keep you alive in our hearts and minds by always sharing our fond memories and good times with you. I love you!! -Carrie

    Papa Roman. You will be missed indefinitely by all those who were blessed to know you. I will always remember your zest for life, the way you always said my name every time you saw me with such excitement and joy (making me feel so special), that smile that could light up a room, your love for entertaining (and cooking), for wine and your family. Thank you for always treating me like a daughter even though you already had two. You were a fighter. You ran a good race Pops. I promise to keep your girls strong during this difficult transition. Please make my mom some good meals up there in heaven and I promise to walk the bird here on earth. Love you
