Gary will never be forgotten by anyone who knew him.

He grew up in the Tunbridge Wells area but had to leave home at a very young age. He managed to
fend for himself and build a life for himself. He had spent a good few years in Luton working for
an airline company before he was encouraged to move closer to Brighton and all that Brighton had to
offer. He was offered a job with a bank which he loved and was living just outside of Brighton in
Newhaven in a house owned by a very close friend. His social life had picked up and he was really
enjoying life.

He died accidentally and tragically at home on 13 May 2007.

I only knew Gary for 6 months whilst I lived in the same house as him but from day one we got on
well, who wouldn't? He was funny, kind, thoughtful, we shared a love of Steps music! and I only
have happy memories of him. Friends who knew him would probably sum gary up as 'A great person
to be with'.

Still can't believe he has gone and that he isn't sitting in his chair surfing the
internet! He certainly won't ever be forgotten.

Will never forget you Gary

Still cry when I think about Gary, though my memories of him are all good. Probably the nicest, most friendly guy I have ever met. The time I spent with Gary I will treasure forever. He touched so many hearts - he never realised how many people loved/liked him - it is true, the world has lost a bright & beautiful light.

I was never sure with Gary if I wanted to hit him or hug him!!!

Although a light has gone out in our lives the lights of heven are all the brighter for our loss

Goodbye My Boi

For years we spoke and never met, when we met things went at a whirl.

We had our moments, but I am so pleased we cleared the air in that last call.

The world has lost a light that shone so brightly, all our lives are darker for this passing.

May you rest in peace.

There is no night, without a dawning
No winter without a spring
And beyond deaths dark horizon
Our hearts will once more sing
For those who leave us for a while
Have only gone away
Out of a restless careworn world
Into a Brighter Day

Denise Rawlins (passerby) September 10, 2007

Those we love remain with us
For love it'self lives on
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved ones gone
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart
For as long as there is memory
The'll live on in our hearts
God bless you Gary xx
