So many have passed since Gary passed away. I know he met Jerry at the gate when he passed away in September of 2019 and I’m sure him and Jerry were standing right there when Howard came to join them September 2020. Those 3 souls probably had lots to catch up on. All of our families miss all three of them. RIP Love from Gail
