To the Larrow Family,

I am so very sorry regarding the passing of Gary. The first time I met him in the M&M CT safety office, he asked if I was going to go home "through the woods". He then gave me the route home (via Rt 44) to Springfield that I used for the next several years. Our conversations were about many things other than work and they included sharing his vast trucking knowledge, and they usually came with something funny about his road experience. Rest in peace, my friend.

so sorry for your loss. I really did not know Gary only by sitting and talking to him at Dunkin Donuts in Brooklynn where he would come we would talk and he was a very funny man. When he would walk in you knew he was there with a smile and a joke. May he rest in peace.

Loved by many, one can't put into words the impact that Gary had on so many lives. I feel so blessed to have known this man. He was such a loving father, grandfather, son, brother and friend. Gary was always quick with a smile, even quicker with a joke, and had a wealth of stories to tell about Vietnam. I've been fortunate to have deep and loving ties to the Larrow family for many, many years. My deepest sympathies go out to each and every one of you, and to Susan, who filled Gary's last few years with happiness. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Having known Gary all my life, there is so much about him to be missed. His infectious smile, his love of family and friends, his incredible sense of humor and prankster ways. Most of all, he cared so much about life, family, and his love of our country. He will be missed by so many. My most sincere condolences go out to his Mom, Mike, sister Charlotte, his brothers, children and grandchildren and to Susan. Much love to you all.
