They would spend their days together enjoying the simple things in life such as feeding the hummingbirds or going on a walk to hunt for some wild mushrooms. Gary was an avid outdoors man from making turkey callers to hunting and fishing that was his happy place. He also loved Jeopardy and as Virgie says, “Most days he would be feeding our family good with all the money he would pretend win.” He was a smart, intelligent and loving man who will be greatly missed by those fortunate enough to have known him.
