Jo Ann Summerall wrote a sympathy message

“I am very sorry to learn this. I worked with Dr Wilson at Lykes Memorial Hospital. He was the BEST of the BEST. He was also Scout Master of Troop #71 for my Cub Scouts. He was a good sport when we inducted him with the Headdress we made for him out of colored construction paper. The boys loved it and Dr. Wilson showed a great spirit in the process. Gary was an All-American kind of guy. He will be remembered and missed. Prayers for his precious family. May the Angels surround them with comfort.”
