This has truly come as to tremendous shock to all that have known Gary for the many years that he truly and passionately served the residence of the Belltown fire district.
At turn of river, group 1 always felt at ease when Gary was on his way with his boys to lend us a helping hand. When Gary retired from his "paid driver" position, only a couple of months ago - we knew that we would only see more of Gary- just in a slightly different capacity. All of us who truly knew Gary - understood how passionate his love for the Belltown fire dept. Was.
Gary - we all know that you will continue to watch over all of us. Now it's our turn to lend mutual aid - and watch over Nicole, Joanne & mom. Rest in peace my friend. You are truly a great guy and be remembered by us all.
