'Fraid i'm late to the wake , been away and then the landline being down for 2 weeks . Saddened to hear the news of Garry's death , but thankful that Rick was able to find out and pass on to the forum . I'd heard of ' closure ' , but luckily not had to experience it in our family . Now I know what it means , and that even bad news is better than a vacuum and the unknown .
Garry , RIP and thank you for all your fine work , humour , and encyclopedia like knowledge .

Me too...

Very sad to hear. As a somewhat irregular visitor these days (since about 2007) it'd been a while since we'd corresponded.

RIP Garry.

Such sad news

Condolences to family and friends.

Such awful news. Although I don't frequent the forum as much as I used to, I recall Garry being a fixture here at CBFS in years past....and I certainly have enjoyed much of the fine work he contributed to the FS community.

Rest in peace, Garry.

Hi folks,

Just popped in here for the first time in ages, not been in for months but first thing I did when I looked in was to come to Escorts and Stewards to see if we'd had any news from Garry. My heart sank as soon as I saw Dave's thread title, the plainness of Garry's name was a tell-tail I suppose of the content.

My deepest condolences Aija and the family, it was a pleasure to converse with him over the wires and be entertained by both his wit and knowledge.

A good thing to value in here I think is the history he's left with us, to read over and over again and enjoy

R.I.P. Garry my friend, hope your doing fine wherever your are now
