I am saddened to hear of my old friend's passing. Growing up and working at Pop Amick's American, Gary would always bring his Vette in to get "white" gas. The price was so high that he started calling me Jessie (for Jessie James) and I called him Al (for Al Capone). I'll never forget that before he moved south he called me and asked if I wanted a pheasant from his avery. I went out to his house a he shot me one. He was a good friend and I'm glad our lives crossed paths. My condolences to Vivian, Jimmy, Doug, Danny and the family. God bless each of you and may you find comfort in the fond memories I know you must have of Gary.
