Gary was a proud and patriotic man who loved the outdoors.  He was an avid hunter and fisherman.  “Papa,” as he was called, always had a big garden and loved sharing the outdoors with his grandkids.  He was a strong man, a provider, and a protector and was devoted to his family.  Gary always made sure his family was taken care of.

He is also survived by 10 grandchildren, Kayla Fortune and husband Brennan, Kate and Zade Bone, Kylie Sprouse, Jaxon, Jaycee, and Jessa Talkington, and Khloe, Kinslee, and Kayden Mitchell; and was excitedly awaiting the arrival of his first great-grandchild, Audrey Kate Fortune.
