From Emmett Jaime on April 6th.
Hello all you Retirees, I hope you are ok and
staying home.
I want to
pass on a phone call I received from Debbie, Gary’s daughter informing me that
Gary passed away yesterday after a bout with cancer. He was 82 years old and
leaves behind two daughters, Debbie, and Julie and his brother. Gary ’s wife passed away in 2019.
He was one of the best liked people and was very easy to get along
with.
While working at the downtown plant he and his wife would make sandwiches
and collect clothing and he would take them to give away to the homeless on Skid row, he was a very generous person as he was always helping his fellow
pressmen wherever it was needed.
Because of
the situation we are in right now there will be no services. The family does
hope to have a Celebration of Life when we are back to normal. I will let you
know when and where this might be happened.
If you care
to send a condolence card here is the address, I'm sure the family will
appreciate it.
Contact Ed Padgett for the family address.
