A father to Cole and Sabrina, brother to Linda and Betty, brother-in-law to Sam, uncle to Kimiko, Lisa, Kristopher, Thomas and Sandy, great-uncle to Alexa, Ocean, Tyler and Wolf and cousin and friend to many. He is predeceased by his parents Henry and Frances.

Our thanks go out to the palliative care team of Kawartha Lakes and St. Elizabeth Nurses and Personal Support Workers who were so helpful and kind. We couldn't have cared for Gary without their help.

A friend, a Mustang guy and most importantly, a man who loved his family. Gary was all of this and more. For a number of years we worked together on the executive of the Golden Track Car Club where I saw there was always enthusiasm with every task he did. He simply loved people, cars, his Mustangs, and track events. He will be missed by the entire car community. But most importantly, he will be missed and remembered by his family and friends. No more illness to battle. Just smooth, two lane blacktop ahead. Be at peace Gary.

My condolences to Gary's family. He was a great guy and had he lived closer to me here in Burlington, there is no doubt we would have been super close buddies! Gary was a great supporter of our Mustang club's "Mustangs at Mosport" Open Lapping Day event, and also a Driver participant in his Marauder. We always appreciated Donway Fords sponsorship of this event, at Gary's insistence with Donway. Unfortunately I am unable to attend services for Gary, but know he will be very much missed by myself and of course the Mustang community. There are many Drivers still doing lapping days that owe their Road course passion to Gary for encouraging them to "take it to the track !".... and of course for selling them a car (Mustang) that is fully capable of it. God Bless Gary, and continue to drive it like you stole it !

Gary was a wonderful friend and coworker.
He always had a smile on his face.
We attended many functions together especially the autoshow were he could tell you anything about the Ford mustang.
He shared his love of his children to all of us.
We would talk for hour's at work about our daughters dance competitions. My condolences to the family he will be greatly missed.
