Curt,

I have no words. Only my support and prayers.

I never met the man, but can tell from his smile, I would have been a better person if I had.

May he forever hear the sound of a twinkling star, smell a flower bloom in the early spring, and taste the shade of a tall Texas tree.

Love ya,

Todd

Curtis,

I only met your Pop once, but he left a lasting impression.  Great listener, even better story teller.  I saw a man that was living his life to the fullest and thrilled to be spending quality time with friends around the campfire.  Most of all Curtis, it was easy for us all to see how proud he was of you.  Watching the two of you together videoing hunts, and shooting the bull around camp is one of my fondest memories of that hunt.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you Curtis...

Curtis, prayers sent for you and your family. Pop's was a "special" friend to many; we'll all miss him.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Pops for the last couple of years and will always cherish our little talks we had at the Sweats.

This is not only a loss for the Traditional Archery community, but humanity. Gary was a heck of guy!

Curtis, my deepest condolences to you and your family.

I think I just need to go have a cold Tecate, Here's to ya Pops!

Curtis,
I am sorry I just saw this tdoay.  I am truly sorry for your loss.  In my parts there is a saying that goes: The cattle die, your relatives die, and you to will one day die, but a mans reputation and honor live on forever.  Judging from the responses here, he was a great man of honor and will live on forever.  So I will raise a toast in his honor as well, though I did not meet him in this life.

Curtis, I lost both of my parents to cancer. My Dad was only 53 when it took him so the time I had with him as an adult was limited. I have many memorys of hunting with him when I was young but not nearly as many as I would like to have had when I was older.

My Dad wasn't a bow hunter but he was very proud of my shooting and used to brag to his gun hunting friends about me.

Cherish the memories you have, they will sustain you until you meet again. God be with you in your time of grief.
We live in the present, we dream of the future, but we learn eternal truths from the past
When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.

Here are a couple of pictures from Dave Lyon (homerdave) on a fishing trip with his son and Pop's last February.  He asked me to help post them here.
