Words of sympathy

Henry and Honey Pine wrote a sympathy message

“As a colleague of Gary at Minnesauke school, I always admired him for his teaching ability and warm smile. I enjoyed the years when our classrooms were next to each other, to enjoy a teaching break while talking in the hallway, or in the faculty lunchroom. I have fond memories of his friendship and laughable moments. He will be missed. My condolences to Ann, his family and friends. Henry Pine”
