Noreen and Connie, I was saddened to hear of Gary's passing. He was a wonderful cousin and I have many fond memories of times spent together. he visit me when I worked at Dooper's gas station and kept me company. Gary got me a job at Earl's club as a bouncer, even though I was underage. He will be missed, but always held fondly in my memories. My love to you both in this trying time. May God grant you both peace. as always your cousin Bob (Robert E. Krahn)'
