I didn’t get to see Gary to often but when I did we always had a good laugh. I’ve never known a harder worker when it came to physical work. He was always up for the challenge. My condolences go out to Bridget and Brynn and all of the Boyle family. RIP Gary.

Dear Gary, Edna, Todd and the rest of the Boyle family,
We were shocked to learn of Gary’s death. He was such a big help and a good friend to our family when we lived on Walton Road. He was always very kind and respectful to my Mom Rose and they had some great talks. We are so sorry for your loss and we will be praying for your family.
