In 1993, Gary married Julie. Together, they enjoyed adventures including wintering in Texas, many outdoor activities, camping, bonfires and many, many fish stories.
But most of all, Gary and Julie enjoyed growing their faith in God together. Especially with their church family at Emanuel Lutheran Church.
