He met the love of his life Chelsey at a friend’s wedding, and their friendship and love grew from there. They were married January 4, 2020 with all of the family members watching.

Gary and Chelsey both shared a love of long drives, cooking together, watching the history documentaries and their trips to Victoria. They loved to laugh with family and friends and were members of the Riders Nation.
