So sad to hear of the passing of another fine OT and man. My deepest sympathy and prayers to Gary's family. Rest in peace shipmate. May we all meet again at the final reunion someday.

I worked with Gary in the training department at Centerville in 1973. Herb Fabricus was the LCPO and Gary was LPO, I had just made PO3. He taught me a lot he was truly an outstanding OT and person.

I was stationed with Gary (as an LT) in Hatteras in'82. A great OT and leader. Learned a lot from him in the short 6mos we were there together. A very knowledgeable, down-to-earth and level-headed person; usually. Everyone will miss him a lot. Sincere sympathies to his family.
