Sending my condolences to Vicky and Scott and the rest of the family. I only know Gary as “Vicky’s dad” back when he lived in Greenwood but he and my parents would socialize and he seemed like a nice man. May he rest in peace.

My sincere condolences to Linda and family.
I first met GK in the early 80's on 415 Sqn in Greenwood, and flew with him on crew for a while. Flying with GK was a great learning experience. Going on deployments with GK was sometimes quite interesting, and his skills and knowledge were always impressive. He was focused and had a work hard play hard attitude that motivated many. No doubt many of GK's former colleagues also have precious memories.
With deepest sympathy,
Francois Carignan

My sincere condolences to Linda and family. Whatever GK did he did with enthusiasm, thought and energy; whether it was digging the puck out of the corner or directing a tactical mission. I am honoured to have known him, may he rest in peace.

Always known as GK, he was the TACNAV ASW expert on 415 Squadron in the early 1980s. A mentor to us new guys, I can still recall him running the ground tests and flight check of my very first TACNAV upgrade. We were all in awe of his skills and knowledge, and respected him accordingly. He epitomized the fly hard-play hard ethos, and his legacy lives on in the successful careers of the many that he mentored. He will be missed.

Linda,
Very saddened to hear of G.K.'s passing. He was a fantastic mentor to so many of us in the dark arts of ASW, in particular to teach us to think like a submariner and anticipate their responses. I was fortunate to also have an exchange with COMPATWINGSLANT/CTF 84 in Norfolk, his professionalism during his exchange gave me instant credibility with our American allies upon arrival, including a significant role in theatre ASW planning. I knew it was he who had opened many NOFORN doors for the Canadian Exchange Officer because of his ASW prowess. Flying with him was an honour, I well remember my first trip with him on a deployment to Lajes in the Azores, where he treated the whole crew to a steak dinner with wine. Because of the excellent exchange rate between US dollars and Portuguese escudos, I think it came to $56 USD for the 12 of us. There are a thousand back bar and Mess Dinner stories, but always good times. My sincerest condolences.

Dear Linda & family, we were saddened to hear of Gary's passing. I first met Gary when I was new to Holy Trinity and we were both picking strawberries for an ACW strawberry supper. I had never seen him in church and later learned that the reason for that was because he was part of the the shockingly early 8am worship group. We send our sincere sympathy for your loss and will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Susan & Butch Joudrey
