Gary was so involved with the church, the "Hope Project" of the 80's, and finally the special Olympics. Gary looked forward to each event, getting to travel the province and meeting numerous people, who are now friends along the way. As an avid walker and bike rider, Gary along with Harris, have made countless friendships throughout Happy Valley Goose Bay and surrounding areas and were known by all. The family would like to thank everyone for their love, kindness and generosity given to Gary over the years. As expressions of sympathy, donations may be made to the Happy Valley Goose Bay Special Olympics. Special thanks to Paul Collier, Labrador Health Centre staff and Doctors.
