I have not seen “little Gary” since he was 8 or so years old I believe. I thought and think of him most days. This is so heartbreaking for all that were close to him, I imagine. I am Dee Dee’s sister Jennifer and I remember playing with Gary and Corey when they were babies. Rest In Peace Gary. I love you. Aunt Jennifer
