Mr. Gary was a very nice man and he will truly be missed on the Carpenters Shop International Church worship team. I truly enjoyed listening to him play and I looked forward to him smiling and wavy at me during every practice and during Sunday morning worship. Rest In Peace Mr. Gary.
I remember Gary from many years back as he was friends with my brother Billy Wayne who also was a member of the Hog Bear band. Gary was a really nice guy and people around Murfreesboro and surrounding areas will surely miss him.
