Born 15th December 1962 Died 06th January 1911

Gary was a familiar face around Medway in the 80's and 90's and I had the pleasure of knowing this gentle giant.
I will never forget the first time we met. It was in a club in Gillingham and I had my right hand strapped up and he asked me what had happened so I explained, after which he jokingly said that he wouldn't want to be on the end of my right hook, This from a great boxing champ. Our paths crossed every now and then and he always said hello and had a brief chat.He was always polite and friendly and had an infectious laugh.
A good, kind and gentle friend who will be sadly missed by all those who new him.
He will never be forgotten.

Correction on above, born 15th December 1962 died 06 January 2011 Gary.

Saw that AV.

Did'nt know that you knew him.........


Same week, Gerry Rafferty died...(He of 'Baker Street' fame) Nobody has mentioned him.....

Alot of people round about Medway knew him. He owned a Jewellers on Gillingham high Street. He also used to frequent a few clubs round about. He made friends wherever he went.
He was a well liked guy and will sadly be missed by loads of people locally. Our local paper had a double page spread on him and I expect there will be more tributes and so on to come over the next few day's/weeks.

I heard about Gerry's death too, he was a good musician but not one I would listen too that much, not my type of music.

Well thats two, I wonder who the third will be?
