Very, very sad I meet Gary 4 years ago when Ralph Cardamone, Rich South and myself went on our 7 week road trip, he such a great guy and fun to be around, I towed his old car back from a run at Valdosta, that was one heavy car, lol. RIP buddy, I'm so glad we got to talk at Indy last year for a bit.

So sorry to here of Gary's passing. I did not know him personally but we saw him everywhere we went. I loved his old car and yes it was COOL.

This is very sad news indeed!
Gary was always the nicest guy to me! He went through a lot over the last years and always kept a upbeat attitude dealing with his illness. He will be greatly missed in our racing community!!! RIP Gary
May your WIN LIGHT shine down on all of us from above!
