Its been 2 years, I miss you even more. It doesn't  get any better,  the kids are suffering,  I'm  suffering.  You were our whole life, we still can't  believe you are  gone.  Just isn't fair.  God bless you and keep you. Cant wait to see you again.  All our love, your kids and wife.

Can't believe it's been a year already since you passed. Still miss you brother in law.
  You'll always be in my good memories. RIP.


Love......Diana....your favorite sis in law...lol

It's been one year today you've been gone. It doesn't get easier, I miss you so much! I can't wait to see you again. I love you with all my heart and soul.  You're Loretta.  12/13/24

No words, but my heart is with you Lori, Jason, Jenny, and Johny.  Literally every time we saw Gary and you all, made our day... every time.  We looked forward to it, in some rough times growing up you all were the light.  Gary was the only positive male role model for us. The way he made us all laugh, the way he made us really feel loved and watched out for, and then he would have a short word or two steering you in the right direction, encouraging us on.  I remember at my wedding he told me how proud of me he was.  I remember watching him be a father, thinking wow that's how I want to be someday.  Not to hard not to soft... and always there.  That's how I want to keep him, always right here... in my heart. 
Love you.

We are heartbroken for all of you and sending many prayers your way.  Hoping that you feel love surrounding you today and always.  
  Gary was such a special man and the only real male figure I had.   I was able to tell him at my wedding that I was marrying my husband because he reminded me so much of Gary.  Such an amazing father and husband and friend to all! He is so missed.  Thinking of you all.  
Amy Tews and family

Gary was a lion with a huge heart. He gave me this plaque when he retired. I have it on on wall in my office and I look at it everyday and think of him. The end of the inscription totally describes Gary when it says " when the sun comes up, you'd better be running". And he was until the job was done. You will be sorely missed buddy. Please rest in peace my friend.

To the family...words can't express the sorrow I know that you are feeling in this time, but please take comfort in knowing that he is in a better place, where there is no pain and suffering. May God Bless You All.

As you can tell from the pictures and comments Gary will be missed dearly but not forgotten. He will remain with us thru memories and thoughts of times together.

Gary has been my closest and dearest friend.  He will be missed greatly. He was at first my boss almost 40 years ago and we slowly developed a friendship with his family and mine. He was always a family man first. It is so painful to say goodbye.

When I babysat for Jason, he couldn't quite pronounce my name and it came out Bedonna.
From then on, Uncle Gary always referred to me by that nickname (but only Gary!).

I had the privilege of working for Gary at Oroweat from 1988-1996. I can honestly say he was the only boss I've ever had that I worked hard for, simply because I never wanted to disappoint him because of the way he treated me, not just as an employee but also as a person. Even when he ripped for screwing something up, he did it so calmly, never raising his voice, and I was never mad or upset after, just wanted to do better.  There were so many things I learned from him that stuck with me, from how to treat people, handle difficult situations, even having $100 in cash on me at all times (which I still do to this day). My deepest condolences to his family, unfortunately I will not be able to make it to Denver to attend his service, but will be there in spirit. Rest easy my friend.

Gary was the best manager I ever worked for.  Heaven is a better place with him in it.  🙏🙏🙏  I remember times when he had to discipline an employee.  He came out of those meetings in worse shape than the employee because he truly was a kind person and cared for every employee that worked for him.

Thank you Gary for everything that you have done for us. We worked with Gary for many years at Bimbo Bakeries. We were very excited that he was finally able to retire and we wished he could have enjoyed retirement  a lot longer.   I am so sorry for your loss.  He was a great man and we were very honored to have met and worked with him. Thank you to his family for allowing him to build his employees up.  It is not easy to have been with a man who was dedicated to his career. He will be greatly missed by all that have known him.  He mentored a lot of great people during his time at Bimbo Bakeries. 

Condolences

Ron and Erica Rose

I worked with Gary for several years at Bimbo Bakeries USA. Gary was a "BREADMAN" through and through. Gary provided great leadership to his team and was always supportive leading the many changes we encountered along the way in the business. Gary was dedicated to serving our customers while growing the business! We were happy for Gary and the family when he was able to retire and only wish he could have enjoyed retirement for a longer period of time. Our hearts are with you during this difficult time.

Dad, you have no idea how much I miss you right now. This is the most difficult time of my life to this point, but I know you want me and all of us to be strong and try our best to be in good spirits and like you always did and have fun, because that's what is what you would want. You always told me to pick my head up and that you love me on hard times. You taught me to be strong even during my darkest times. I know you loved me so much because you always, always showed it and said it. You got emotional all the time talking about the day I was born because of the difficulties I had then, which always showed me just the out pouring of love you have for me. You were all about one word which was "LOVE" You cared and loved your family like none other and you were so loyal to all of your friends and I know that's where I got my loyalty from and why loyalty is so important to me which is gone these days. The nights watching wrestling every Monday night I will always cherish, among everything we did it was just always pure fun and laughing with that sense of humor you had. You were one of a kind and not like most dads, you were never afraid to show your true feelings and being strong at the same time, which I think is the perfect definition of what a father should be. Thank you dad for the love, the lessons, the laughter, and the giant bear hugs making me feel safe since I was a kid, and most of all the pure love for me. I love you dad, my one and only, forever and ever. You are now at peace with God, the suffering is over. Watch over all of us. Love you dad! 🙏❤️

I'm so glad that you were there to walk me down the aisle on my wedding day.  So many memories. I love you dad.

Gary was a wonderful , caring , and kind brother-in-law whom I know would be there if we ever needed him. His love for my little sister Lori was obvious. He would often call her my lovely Loretta. High school sweethearts married 50 years. His family and their happiness was his number one priority. He bragged on his daughter Jenny and his sons Jason and John. His grandkids made him smile and he would do anything for them. He was a hard worker and very rarely complained about anything. Bruno and I will never forget the good times we had and I will miss his hugs and laid back outlook on life. Rest in peace.  Love.......Bruno & Diana

Sending our love . We enjoyed having Gary in our life as a dear friend and also being in our family. We will miss his warm smile and kind heart. We lived in the same apartment complex when we were first married and had so much fun. Love Joe and Stephanie

Me and sister Rosie.                   Strongest man in the world!

I just wish I could hug you one more time. I love you forever.

The love of my life, my best friend, my protector, my soul mate, my life.    I don't know how I am going to live without you,  I met you at age 14 and we were together ever since.  A big part of me is gone.  My heart is breaking . You were the best husband , father and grandpa.  You were so kind to others and had such a good sense of humor.   Rest in peace my love, until we meet again.  Your loving wife, Loretta

Words cannot describe the saddeness and sorrow that I feel for his family right now, especially for his wife Lori. My heart shattered when I heard that Gary had passed away. After hearing the news of his passing, it stirred fond memories of my childhood. 

Gary was the Dad of my childhood best friend John. I first met Gary during a sleep over. John and I were playing when he had gotten back home from work. He was in his business suit when I greeted him: "Hi Mr. Lebsock."  He simply replied back to me : "Please, call me Gary." Coming from a home without a good father figure, I began to see Gary as one. 

I am so glad to have visited my Lebsock family again in 2019 as an adult and introduced my wife & kids to Gary. It was a well deserved reunion. I didn't know it was going the last time I'd get see him. Before we left, I hugged him and my final words to him were: "Don't go back to work you hear? You enjoy your retirement. If you get bored you find something to do. Just don't go back to work." 

I had hoped to see him a few more times in the future. All I can say now is Gary, if you can hear me, you enjoy your time in heaven now you hear? And don't forget about us because we'll never forget about you.

I worked for Jerry for 24 years at Oroweat. And I have never had a boss that truly cared about his employees as much as Gary did. I knew that I could always go to Gary if I had an issue and he would talk me through whatever the issue was and always tell me what a good job I was doing. They don’t make them like him anymore. He was a great man and I’m glad I had the pleasure of working for him. Rest in peace Gary.
