BIGUN 1,307 #4 June 10, 2010 Man o' Man. That is really sad news. Many nights sitting around the RV sipping some Forty Creek and telling old fart stories. Damn, this really just saddens me. Rest in Peace, Gary. I'm really gonna miss ya, man. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidlayne 5 #8 June 12, 2010 Gary came into the skydiving community in the later stages of his life with an enthusiasm that had to be admired. He will be sorely missed.I don't care how many skydives you've got, until you stepped into complete darkness at 800' wearing 95 lbs of equipment and 42 lbs of parachute, son you are still a leg!
