If the description “one of a kind” applies to any man, it fits my close cousin Gary perfectly. Being a couple of years his senior (in age only!), I’ve known Gary all of his life and been in a position to observe how he adapted to circumstances while always showing his love for wildlife as expressed in his paintings and carvings. His home on the South Shore with Virginia and their four daughters, was a favorite destination for family enjoyment. Much later, with Florence and their daughter, in their historic house and property in Plympton, Gary’s role as dad to all was no less than remarkable. And let me say, finally, that I have not known Gary to show more than annoyance even when downright anger would be warranted. That says a lot about his character. Here’s to you, old man.
