To Garry’s family, We have just recently seen where Garry has passed away. Sending our deepest sympathy to you all. Garry used to call on us during his Petrolcorp days and had many cups of teas and lunches with us. We always enjoyed his company and looked forward to his visits. We have many memories of those calls. Keith and Joy Hosking

Dear Sue Gran, Simon, Karyn, Samuel, Emilie & family Garry was one of life’s true gentlemen. His genuine interest in how we were doing and what we were up to made us all feel so special when we visited. Our family Xmas catch ups will always be remembered fondly. Our thoughts are with you all as you mourn the loss of your much loved husband, Dad and Grandad. A kind, caring and proud man and a very special “Garry” to us all. Lots of Love Louise, Simon, Thomas and Jessica xxxx
