Gary J. Dramis

He is survived by his loving wife, Karen M. Dramis, with whom he shared 39 years of marriage, and their three daughters: Arianna; Alexandria (“Alex”) and her husband Mitch; and Alyssa and her husband Justin. Gary was a proud and devoted father whose greatest joy was his family.

He will be deeply missed by his two granddaughters, Sophia and Scarlett, who lovingly called him “Pop Pop” and brought him endless cuddles and happiness.

Gary was a dear brother to Michael Dramis and his wife Allison Dramis, and a beloved brother-in-law to Theodore and Deanna Johnson, and Lisa and Basil Skaltsis. He is also lovingly remembered by his six nephews and one niece, all of whom held a special place in his heart.

Gary spent his career in the hospitality industry, where his warmth and generosity touched countless lives. He had a special way of making people laugh and feel at ease and loved bringing people together—often over a good meal or a glass of his favorite bourbon—always making sure everyone felt welcome and well cared for.

Gary will be remembered for his kindness, humor, and deep love for his family. He leaves behind treasured memories and will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
