I knew Gary and his family for over 45 years We had many adventures ie fishing, pig hunting travelling, many a good party along the way All my close friends knew him well (ie. THE Gor Brothers) and we all had a good laugh with so many stories. My children grew up with Gary in their life and all knew him as Uncle Gary Many times we would go up the Valley to go and visit - He wouldn't let you leave unless you had a good feed and plenty of watering. He would always send you off with spuds or kumaras or some kind of vegetables. He always would stick up for his friends and have your back. All those years he was a good friend and I will miss him dearly Thank you Gary for coming into our lives and for being the Guy you were Love to you and your Whanau From Mark, Keith, Vera-Lee and Owen xxxx
