Gary was an avid bowler and loved trains and baseball. He enjoyed collecting stamps and coins. He had an infectious smile and was a very generous and kind man, known as "Grandpa" to all. His greatest love was his bride Maureen who was the "love of his life". His family was important to him and he made many memories with his children and grandchildren when he coached them in baseball. He will be greatly missed by all.
