Yesterday, the memorial for Gary went very smoothly. It was so nice to see so many of his friends there to celebrate and remember his remarkable life. Many thanks go out to the special people who made the service so special. The music was wonderful and Gary was such a lover of music among other things. The speakers all did a fantastic job of giving everyone a sense of who Gary was. I loved all the spots during the service when people laughed. That is what I remember most about Gary, how he made us laugh. During the planning of the memorial, I had tried without success to find someone who knew Gary as a scout leader. Well, God dropped one right in our lap yesterday. One of the guests got up to speak about Gary as his troop leader. Icing on the cake!! My wish was that when everyone left yesterday, they would feel as if they had one last visit with Gary.
