Help Support Gary Horton

Donation protected
He’s 71 years old and has been working 2 jobs full time for the past 14 years. And after losing his wife 4
years ago has been paying off her medical bills that occurred before her death. Now he’s been
diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He could use help in getting bills paid so in the last months of his life
he could retire from both jobs, and enjoy some time at home without the worry of leaving his children
with debt.

Gary is a USAF veteran from 1968-1972 and was a Global Survival Instructor. He has over 23 years of
Government service first with the VA Hospital, and now with USCIS. He has been a little league coach,
Cub Scout leader, Boy Scout leader and a good neighbor. He has been a good father to his four children.

You might have seen him as your child’s little league coach , or as your son’s Cub Scout leader, or as an
Assistant Scoutmaster, and Scoutmaster to your son, he was also chosen to be an Assistant Scoutmaster
to the 144 Scouts from the Twin Council taken to the 100th Anniversary of Scouting's Jamboree in 2010
Now after the years of giving and working he could use some help

Gary started working delivering Newspapers when he was 12 and hasn’t stopped working since, after 4
years in the US Military, he worked full time while putting himself through college. He married, raised
four children, and continued working 2 full time jobs so as to pay for his wife’s medical bills accrued
before she died. He has been working those two jobs full time for the last 14 years. He is 71 years old
and has been diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. It is time for him to retire and enjoy some retirement.
He needs help to pay bills so as not to leave his children with those bills. It is time to give him some
help, and let him enjoy a well earned retirement while battling cancer.

This our Dad. You might have known him as a little league coach for your son or daughter. You may
have seen him at every concert we were in from Rosendale to Iroquois to NHS . He might have been a
Cub Scout leader to one of your relative’s son in Cub Scouts in Pack 31 Rosendale or Assistant and
Scoutmaster for Boy Scout Troop 34 at St Katerinana. Or lead your scout relative in a group of 144
Scouts from the Empire District.
He has worked 2 jobs full time for the past 14 years to keep up on the bills, AT the VA hospital and now
at Department of Homeland security, and as a security guard at GE Niskayuna.
Our Mom Died in 2017 and he has been paying her hospital bills that occurred when she was in
Intensive care for 2 months before her release, and she died 2 month later.
In order for him to retire, he first needs to pay off those bills. We would ask first for your payers and
kind words, and secondly to help him finally and enjoy his time off with his family and his home.
Thank you.
