So sorry to hear of his passing. Gary was a great help for my research at Virginia Tech and I always liked working with him at grower meetings. My condolences to the family.

To Dianne & family, May you feel God's arms wrapped around you with the giving of his comfort and warmth. The farmers of Frederick and surrounding counties were blessed to have Gary's knowledge available to them in all aspects of the agricultural field. Gary was all of those things and more as mentioned in his tribute. Having worked for ASCS [FSA], our paths crossed over the years. Peace and grace, Jo Anne Bromley Baker

Dear Diane, Bryan & Jodi & spouses, grandchildren and extended family and friends, we express our condolences. Please know we've prayed and are continuing to pray for you all as we all go through the grief process. Please know also that this will never erase all the wonderful times this family has had. One of our wonderful memories was the night we were playing poker at Otts and Gildas and when someone called "Indian No Peeky" we didn't realize Gary was using the wall mirror to see his card each hand... Our love especially to the immediate family. Diane, we'll phone you in a few days. Love, Bob & Kathie
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

I met Jodi DeOms, with Special Love/Camp Fantastic, and in turn later met Diane and Gary. The family is simply lovely, caring, desire to bring smiles to all. One of the best things about camp, is the "hug". Hugs are given as a sign of appreciation, love, and desire to assist each other. To the DeOms family and their friends, a big hug to you. You bring joy and smiles to us, when we think of you. Gary, a prayer for you, as your enter God's grace, I bet a smile is on his/her face. Love to all.

I met Jodi when she was a 15 year old volunteer at Camp Fantastic and though her, i met her parents Diane and Gary. For many years Gary has been a regular visitor to camp, which i feel was more than just a visitor because on every visit he bought fresh fruit and vegetables for the campers, he also spent hours interacting with campers and staff, he spent time transporting campers to their activities and filling in anywhere there was a need. I am having a difficult time imagining Camp Fantastic 2015 without Garry. Gary was a very special person and will be missed. My prayers go out to the DeOms family.

Diane and Family, We are both sorry for your loss. Gary was a fine and excellent county extension agent, one of the best in this area. We can remember living on Battle Ave. many years ago and when we would have a bug or weed problem, here comes Jerry Fout and Gary to examine the problem and giving us a solution. His advice was always taken seriously. We remember you and him at Papermill with John and Carolyn Marker, and Gary of course was in his suspenders!!!! May Gold hold each of you in the palm of his hand during the days, ahead. Charles and Deloris Hausenfluck
