I was saddened to hear of Gary's passing. He was a very good friend and one of my favorite AFMIC agents. We had such good times when the district visited. I'm out of the country or I would be there to help celebrate his life. He was a good man.

Sending my heartfelt sympathies to Gary's family. I was Gary's Commercial lines underwriter back in the old days of district 185. He was one of my favorite agents I had the opportunity to work with. He liked to laugh and joke and I always enjoyed talking with him. He will be missed by many friends he made along his journey. May God's comfort be with you.

Kevin and the Hurst Family
So sorry to hear of the loss of your dad, brother, brother-in-law, uncle and son. I have fond memories of your dad, Kevin, when I was a manager of the 8th Grade Boy's Basketball team at Adam's Jr. High. He was always so proud to watch you play. Thinking of your family.
