Final expenses and family needs

Donation protected
Today our family suffered a tremendous loss. How do I even begin to share how very heartbroken we are. We lost a son, a brother, an uncle, a father, a husband, a friend to many. It is surreal.

Gary will forever be in our hearts and memories. I loved this man with all my being. He was my one and only love and my person for over 21 years.
He leaves a large hole in our lives that is not replaceable. I'm thankful he is no longer enduring pain and suffering. But it was the most difficult journey to go through.
We all spent as much time as possible with him over the last 2 weeks. He just wanted to be out of pain and to spend time with his family. He was surrounded by family and love.

At this time we do not have arrangements for a service. If you wish to express your condolences with the family please send cards to

12 Chapelridge circle apt B Marion IA 52302.

We appreciate everything all the nurses and doctors did to ensure he received the care he needed. And a special thank you to the Oldorf Hospice House for making the last few days comfortable for our family.
And thank you to all of our friends for your loving words and support during this time.

Rev 21:4-"And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

I can't wait for the day we will see him again. Smiling and doing what he loved with his loved ones.
