Gary’s love of people was visible to all who knew him. He was always willing to offer a helping hand whether he knew you personally or just happened to cross your path. A retired heavy equipment operator, he loved the outdoors, boating or just tinkering and repairing equipment. Those of us who had the pleasure of sharing his life knew him as a true friend, especially his four-legged friends and his cat Chipper.
Gary is survived by his soulmate, best friend and wife Margie (Delorey); his sons, Dennis (Margaret), Eastern Passage, Troy (Carmen), Digby, Garrett, Hillside Boularderie; daughters, Shelly (George), Middle Sackville, Tanya (Jamie), Portuguese Cove, Amanda (Brett), Calgary, Tanya, California, Karen (Kenny), Calgary, Crystal (Darren), Calgary; grandchildren, Logan, Courtney, Lindsey, Emma, Mackenzie, Joshua, Madison, Luca, Parker and Haley; brother, Major (Shirley), Orville; sisters, Olivia, Helma (Ulysse) and Dorothy (Leo). Also surviving are numerous brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews.
