She PM'd me last night and asked if I would help her get this on the board..
Quote:
1. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers and to those who made it to the funeral.
2. Thanks for being part of Gary's life
3. Gary has filled my heart with so much pride that it leaves little room for sorrow. I felt that I had to be strong for him because he wanted to make people happy not sad and because I didn't want my Dad (Gary Sr.) to worry about me.
4. I chewed Gary a new --- when he came down to visit me and got on my computer to check your board and talk to you all because I thought his priorities we're wrong but if I knew he was doing all this good for you guys, I would have gladly sacrificed the time. and finally
5. Hats off to his wife Nicki for taking good care of him and letting him play with his toys and most of all Hats off to my Dad for raising him as a single father who had no higher priority than his kids. Keep on playing with your Mopars!

Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Apparently, kindness and thoughtfulness runs all through that Davis family. They will continue to remain in my prayers.

Kim,
Thanks so much for sharing some of your feelings and emotions.
It is obvious that your Father did a fantastic job of raising You and Gary!
As you can see from this board, Gary was special to a lot of us! Regardless of whether we actually met Gary or not!
I consider my self blessed as I have been fortunate to be able to spend some time with your brother.
I considered those times special then and SADLY, even more so now. Gary was that special to me! I will never forget Gary and I look forward to seeing him again when my time is done here on earth. Until then, the vivid memory of his ear to ear grin and conversations we had will have to do.
If there is anything I can do for You, Nicole or your Father, (I live in FL), Please let me know.
Thanks again for sharing,
Chuck West

Kim,
As mentioned "Thank You" for the kind post and it's nice to know that we can return the favor and help you feel better during this unfortunate period.
Also, Gary and some of us used to meet every other week for lunch. He had mentioned before, when I'd bring up the topic of my boat, that he had a joint ownership in a Scarab with you and it was a very good time for him before you moved out of state.

Thanks Kim. I too was one of the lucky ones who met Gary and I knew right away he was special. I could not have asked to be treated better then he treated my son Tim and I at the 2001 Nats when we met Gary. I agee your dad did one awesome job raising your family as Gary was just one great people person and you had to like him as we all can see everyone did. If I can do anything also let me know as I live in Md but from just the one time I met Gary I feel like he was one of my best friends ever. Take care and god bless. Ron

Welcome! and Thanks for sharing! I feel very fortunate to have met Gary and even stayed at their house a couple of nights last August with my family. The world needs more caring people like your family.  ~Mike~

Moparts is an addiction, and what makes it addicting are all the great members and Gary was one of the finest.
