We were so sad to learn of Gary's passing. He was simply the nicest, most gentlemanly person I've met in a long time. It was an honour to know him.

Gary was the family accountant for close to 25 years. A pilgrimage was made each April when my parents took the farm books to Gary for the annual income tax reporting. I can remember accompanying them on several occasions or being here at home when Gary would venture in this direction. Oh how I enjoyed Gary's anecdotes about his own career, family and the experiences he had over the years. So many wonderful memories, a dedicated tax professional and an excellent person. You will be missed Gary. God's speed!

Peggy
