              So sad that to hear that Gary passed away, we will keep his family in our prayers.

                Just found out that Mark & Laurie (Mark501) and Rick & Kathy (Kat Bird) plan to attend Gary's memorial service.

                Also, I talked to our old traveling buddy, Don Morton, last night. He doesn't use the computer (that was Merle's job), so of course he had no idea that Gary had passed away. Don sends his heartfelt condolences to BJ, the Himes family and all of the TBN members that loved Gary. Don sounded great and said he is doing pretty well. He drives Dunderbird around when the weather is nice.

                  Such a nice, warm and friendly man the few times we were at a TBN event and he was there. So wonderful that so many of the TBN families are going to the memorial service. Just proves once again Tom Aglio's favorite saying......."It's not just about the cars but it's the people who drive them"! RIP Gary.

                          My prayers also go out to Gary's family. Gary was truly a pleasure to call friend. He will be missed by everyone here on TBN that knew him.

                            Since getting the call regarding Gary's passing, I remain in shock. It just doesn't seem possible. Having known Gary for over 10 years, he was a true gem. Wicked sense of humor, I haven't been able to watch Flo on the Progressive commercials without thinking of him. You just had to have heard him impersonate her saying "...awkward". He had me in stitches one entire event.

                            TBN has lost a good man, my thoughts and prayers to BJ and the family. Thank you to those of you attending the service. Please express my condolences and give her a hug from me.

                              Awful news - all I keep saying to myself is "that sucks". I met Gary a couple times, what a nice guy - horrible news. Never had the pleasure of meeting Stan, I'm sure he was an excellent person.

                                read a post on FB from Mr. McCloud regarding Gary's passing. We are Heartbroken. Has anyone been in touch with BJ?
