366th Security Police Squadron, K-9, Sentry Dog, Bucky.

Gary’s wife, Rita, phoned last night and told me Gary had passed away on Monday, March 27th, 2017.  I introduced them and they were married 50 years ago, this year.  Gary and I were at DaNang AB, K-9, 1965-1966, and many of our members served with and remember him.

For many years Gary battled agent orange, with declining health.  He recently had surgery due to gangrene issues, and died in hospice.

Funeral services are this Saturday, 1 April 2017. I will attend.
