“In loving memory of Gary Lee Janssen, Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss. I dispatched Gary for 4 years at SHI. He was one of my favorites. If you were having a bad day he would cheer you up with one of his stories or jokes. Gary was also concerned about getting the job done. He would do anything for anyone. He helped mold me into a the dispatcher I would become. I missed him when I left SHI. He would call me once in awhile to give me the business and ask how I was doing.”
