Terrible, shocking news.
A thorough gentleman in every way.
I met with Gary and his wife on several occasions. A wonderful pair, very close,
his wife traveled with him to the major tournaments.
He loved the game, and could really play at a top level. Even in recent times and
with the advent of age he still played very well.
I first met Gary when I lived in Ohio, decades ago as he traveled across northern Ohio in action.
In those days, he won a lot as a road player. A true monster player.
In later years he got into buying and selling high end cues, and always had several best of the best on hand.
Damn, this is sickening. What a wonderful gentleman.
Prayers for Tierzia and family.
I will have all his loved ones in my thoughts and prayers.
