Dear Carter Family,
I was so sad to hear of Gary's passing. We worked together as nurses at St Anthony's for many years. I was proud to know him as an excellent caregiver and a friend. He hosted my son and I (Tristan King) during a hurricane and put up with my French Bulldog as well. The last time I saw him I picked him up from an appointment and insisted that he buy me lunch. I knew he was in the hospital and Teddy(Tristan) visited him often and always give him my "get well" wishes. Gary will be missed. My prayers will be with Gary and his family. Sending my condolenses with love!

Doc was my Dad Ken's best friend. He was kind and sweet, and kept my dad's dog Autumn after he passed. I wish I had more time to know him.
Love you so much Doc,
Elizabeth
