I just heard about Gary´s death. I will always remember how Gary was always kind to and ready to hear my idea´s about the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce. His leadership was the best. The city of Lawrence lost a real supporter when he moved. I know even in his days in California he would be thinking of Lawrence. Many blessings to his family. I know he is resting in peace.
