Gary Lynn Pendleton

Gary was larger than life in every way. He will be remembered for his wonderful sense of humor, generosity, and love for his family and friends. He had an admirable compassion for children and animals. He had a fierce love of sports, particularly football, rugby and grillin’. He was his son’s biggest fan, and he was a father to many.

Gary’s career in fitness equipment began in Gregory Gym on the University of Texas campus in Austin, Texas. His hard work and dedication progressed him all the way to Senior Manager for Global Service and Training at Stairmaster/Core Health and Fitness.
