Thanks Gary for making the struggle with early sobriety so much fun. We had some really good laughs. It’s what kept me coming back. It’s a rare person that no one has any bad things to say about them, and that was you. PEACE to you Sharon and Shannon and the rest of Gary’s family.

Although we never met, I heard enough to know you were a great person, a hero, a survivor and a fighter. You can sometimes deduce someone by how their child is as a person and parent, which proves you were amazing. Rest in peace.
I knew both Gary and Brain while growing up in Newark (Ironbound) NJ. Their family informally adopted me as family member, very typical during the 60’s in America. I mentioned this only because they included me in every family outing. Including meeting President JFK at campaign rally in Newark for the mayor (Addonizio).
Both our families moved out of Newark and over the years we loss touch. I am very sadden to hear the passing of Gary, he was the quieter one of the two brothers…but never the less followed along on all mischief we kids got ourselves into. After all these years I still look back and remember those crazy times. Especially while partaking in many activities at the Ironbound Boys Club. Let’s not forget the impact the Beatles had on us in 1962. I just wish I had the opportunity to spend time with Gary before his passing. I read he was quite the joker, it would of meant the world to me spending time reminiscing the old days from our perspective. RIP Gary!
