The was a great showing of Moparts members paying their respect at Gary's funeral today. The amount of Police officers was incredible. The church was over capacity.
Made me proud to be a member and see all the support for Gary's family and friends.

It was truely moving. I saw police cars from every town in lower Michigan, all the way to Traverse City. That's over 250 miles away. I will always remember this, as I will Gary.

That is too cool to explain. I'm sure Gary appreciates it all. I wish I could have been there.

Unreal, all you guys that attended should feel proud at the send off you gave Gary.

I like everyone else wish I could have been there to say thanks to Gary for all the help on the board.

There was a few police bikes and cars in front, then the challenger, then hundreds of police and fire vehicles. The mopars were at the rear.

His Challenger was in front of the police procession. After the 21 gun salute, the Challenger was fired up and man did that bring the house down. Everyone got a little tear eyed after that.

Thanks for the details Todd. I bet it was a sight to see. I'm sure very hard for everyone.

Thanks for the pics! Sure looks like lots of mopars there... wish I would have been in one of them.

My 69 rr went to a deputy sheriff in Detroit, anyone happen to see a lime green 69 RR with a 6 pack hood?

Thanks for posting the pictures, wish I could have been there but I wasn't sure my old car could do the 1300 mile round trip pulling 3.91 gears (3500 at 70 mph). I think I will regret not making the trip, the cars still setting outside packed and ready to go with Garys badge number on both rear windows
