God Speed Gary Wells. US Navy Vet, So Western Moderator, Pistol Marksman, My best friend. RIP.

Yesterday afternoon we lost Gary Wells. He had been struggling with health issues for quite a few years. Last weekend I spent half the day with him. Much of that was at the shooting range, where he shot the best he'd shot in years. We had a great day. We could not wait to go again this weekend. Looking back, it puts a smile on my face that in his last week, he went out like a rock star, doing what he loved to do and doing it better that anyone else, including your's truly.

God Speed my friend.
Thanks for all the great memories.

So Western Moderator. (still trying to fill Gary's shoes).

Sorry to hear, Gary always came across as one of the good/nice guys, reminded me of Dennis Kirban speaking gently and always taking the high road. Always had the nicest birthday wishes for people, rest in peace.

Mike I never had a chance to meet Mr Wells but from reading his posts you could tell he was a stand up guy. Thank you for your service. Rest Easy Buick Brother.

Mike,

I really sorry to hear this, Gary was as devoted a Buick guy as I think I've ever met and a really nice fella. I feel bad because I saw him at Bates and didn't find time to drop by to chat. I didn't honestly know his health issues had gotten as bad as they were. We won't be the same without him.

God Speed Gary!
