Gary was born in Wellsville, NY and a 1968 graduate of Andover HS. Gary worked in the construction industry the majority of his life and specialized in masonry. He was skilled in several trades but was always humble and often used his many talents to help and serve others. Gary played guitar, organ, piano and trombone in several rock bands in the 60's and 70's and had a passion for music throughout his life. He enjoyed camping, going on drives, sight seeing, and spending time working in his garage. Whenever something needed to be fixed, Gary was the one to call which is how he earned the nickname "Papa Tools" from his grandchildren. He will be deeply missed by his family.
