Just can't imagine what it'd be like if I would have really known him! My sentiments EXACTLY - I worked on the car all day Saturday,and Gary, his family and friends were all I could think about.... I will continue to pray for them. I doubt that there will EVER be a time when working on, or using my cars that I wont think of this man who I only knew through cyberspace = I never had any interaction with him personaly .. yet I always regarded him as a true believer, a gentleman, and a perfect moderator for a forum like this... I could just sence it in the way he conducted himself in his posts and replies. I am sure he was just as stellar in every facet of his life. Yep I would say he left a positive mark on the world .

Its times like these that we realize how stong our Moparts bonds are. I know he is at peace knowing how many friends he really had .

A friend of mine (Sacramento Sherriff) was killed in the line of duty about 8 years ago when she was responding to a call for back up, and a drunk driver in a huge Ford pick up pulled out in front of her (as he was leaving the liquor store!), she t-boned him at about 70mph... I went to the funeral at the Capitol building.. it was so emotionally draining I couldn't believe it. Gary - thanks for your contributions to society, Moparts, and the friends who had never even met you.

I deceided to take the back way to the funeral, country roads, and through Gary's home town. There were billboards and signs everywhere, for Gary and his family. This pic actually has "moparts.com" on the sign. I was a mess before I even got to the church. 899028-MVC-001S.JPG (581 downloads)

I was on the roof of my new shop, putting down the roof sheeting, thinking that they were playing taps at around that time. I just sat on the peak of the roof with the wind blowing me around for about 20 minutes. I know what cop funerals are like, have been to many. I just kind of sat up there and staired East and wished I could have been there. Thanks for being there for us. LAWFISH/ Nevada Dave/ Badge # 176/ DCSO 20 plus years.

Following Dave Dudek's car... but at no one point could I see the actual beginning or end of the procession's line-up. It was simply waaaaaay too long. ALL the cars in the right lane in front of me (as far as you can see in the pic) were in the procession. It was very impressive to say the least. Dale 900123-procession.jpg (231 downloads)

What a gorgeous day for a beautiful service. People don't ever grasp the scope of their influence while they're here. Only their family and friends get to witness it after they are gone. I never met Gary, but it's obvious that he was a great person just by these pics and from my few conversations with him. Bad people don't have many friends. I'm sure Gary was pleased to see all that vintage iron rumblin' down the road. Knowing him, he was figuring out how much horsepower was on the road all at once. God speed, Gary. You will be missed, brother. OIF V and OEF X veteran and proud of it!

I couldn't get my sh*t together long enough to do it. I was up and down and up and down and spent most of my energy concentrating on not blubbering away. It was rough. There was so much support and respect laid down yesterday that I don't think I've ever seen anything like it. Attached is one of Gary and his best buddy Russ at the Woodward Dream Cruise `02. I'm still struggling with this guy's loss, but will sorta' get over it in time. (I hope!) Sorry about the big pic, but it loses too much if I shrink it down due to it being shot at 9:30pm at night. Peace be with you Gary, Nikki and everyone that cared. Dale 900409-garyrusswdwrd.jpg (120 downloads)

I though a similar thing about Gary's car following the hearse... kinda like a fallen cavalryman's horse following the caisson....

I wish Russ could have taken gary car and done one last burnout for it driver.I get a shiver just thinking about it... thank for all the pictures everyone! Terry Sansom

As a tribute to him they should put his car in a museum or something. After someone put so much of himself into this hobby, I know I would feel guilty driving his car. Losing a loved one, especially like this is a shock to anyone, I just wish I could have been there with my car in the procession.
