RIP Dear Sir. I felt like I had met you on one of my trips. If not I know I would have enjoyed the camaraderie. |

I just got back from sjo, Gary was found dead in his apt. on April 7. After not being seen in the SL for a few days a welfare check was made & his body was found. He was in the SL on most nights & I chatted & ate & drank with him many a time. He was a good guy, enjoyed his life, & we had many of the same chicas we enjoyed dates with. While there I found out another longtime crt'er who coincidentally used to occupy the same table Gary did @ the SL had died in November. Big Mark from Chicago, Donpapi on crt, had passed on. I met him in 2005 @ Bar Idem, us being the only gringos in the joint, & he was very helpful to this rookie. He hung there nightly & then moved his action to the SL, 5 or 6 nights a week. Health problems got to him, he returned to the usa, then came back to sjo & died where he was happiest. My generation of mongers are slowly disappearing. At age 68, with many health problems & feeling poorly, I myself wonder how little time I have left. I was able to "rise" to the occasion this trip but feel I have few left in me. So all you guys out there, enjoy life & don't put things off as time is not on our side. |

I met Gary on both of our first trips to the SL back in Dec 2015. He had just retired from Boeing and was ready to live the retired life. He was a fixture at the SL. He had stopped drinking for awhile as his health deteriorated significantly in the 7 years since we had met. Last time I saw him was in 2022 and he was ing good spirits. RIP Gary
