Gary, a man of God, who loved and adored his family. If you knew him, you knew this. Gary loved BIG. He loved and supported all kids, of all ages, and especially enjoyed working with the youth at church. Although his health issues caused him to retire at a young age, he supported every activity of Justin and Chad! He never met a stranger, was happy to tease, and always had a joke. The world was a better place, because Gary Marcum lived!
