I am so sorry to learn of Gary's passing. You are all in my prayers and thoughts at this difficult time. Words do not express the depth of the sorrow, nor can they express my deepest sympathy. Gary was a wonderful person and I am so sorry for his loss.
May God hold each one of you in His loving arms and keep you while you grieve.
God's Peace and comfort to you all.

Gary was an outstanding young man. I will always remember his great smile, his respect for fellow students and instructors. Always neatly groomed and a pleasure to be around. A truly great representative of Ponca City High School.

I had a double surprise. First was the news of Gary's passing. It has been a long time since I last saw Gary, I did not stop to think he is almost as old as my brother. The second surprise is that ya'll are living in Conway, AR. We lived in Conway about fifteen years ago. That was prior to our move to Pensacola. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. May God Bless you at this most difficult time.

Janet & Family - Terry and I were shocked to learn about your loss. I can honestly say I knew Gary for a complete life time since his mom took care of me when she was pregnant with Gary. We grew up and friends and it was an honor to have him as Best Man at our wedding in 1971 & my friend for life.

I know he was a good husband, father and Grandpa. He was always in a good mood and fun to be around.

He & the Zemp family will be in our thoughts and prayers.
