It is with overwhelming sadness that I tell you that Gary died at 2:31 this morning (Saturday).
The kids were all in bed with him and we embraced him as he took his last breath.
Words cannot begin to tell you how sad we are.
Please keep us in your prayers and we will give you an update when I am emotionally ready to.

We are asking you to all join us. The kids would love to have all of your children there as well. The boys need to be surrounded by their friends.

Peace is flowing like a river.
Flowing out through you and me--.
Spreading out into the desert.
Setting all the captives free.
Setting all the captives free.
Much love.

Lisa, I too am overwhelmingly saddened that you have lost Gary but happy that he is no longer in pain but with our Father. I pray you and the boys will feel the comfort of God's arms around you and the love and prayers of so many who love you.

I am so sorry for your loss. May you and your sons be comforted by all the happy memories you've had with Gary through the years. May his spirit always be in your hearts and thoughts....

God saw you getting tired.
When a cure was not to be,
He closed his arms around you and
whispered, "Come to Me".
In tears we saw you sinking.
We watched you fade away.
Our hearts were almost broken,
you fought so hard to stay.
But when we saw you sleeping
so peacefully from pain,
We could not wish you back
to suffer so again.
A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.
So keep your arms around him Lord,
and give him special care.
Make up for all he suffered
and all that seemed unfair.
We do know that God's loving arms are around Gary now.

Our thoughts, prayers and love are with you and your family at this time of loss and saddness.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May God hold you all close and comfort you.
Dear Sallee Family
What an incredably loving way to send Gary to his Father, embraced by the Earth family he so dearly loved into his heavenly Father's wating hands. Gary is still surrounding you with his love along with all of the angels. My early heart breaks for your pain, but Gary will always be with you loving you, guiding you and watching over you.... prayers always.
Lisa,
Please know that you and the boys are in our thoughts and prayers! I know there are no words that can ease the sadness you and the boys are feeling. I pray that you and your family may find some peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Love, The Furniss family
Russ, Jennette, Jake and Matthew

Thinking of you in this sad time. I only met Gary once, but I'm sure he's in a better place now than what he's had to endure recently.
Wishing you and your family the best,
