Many thanks Scott... I'm very glad to know that the Austins know how much Gary meant to us all. He helped me out of a pinch on a number of occasions, and was always such a great chap in every sense of the word. I really miss him.

As disconnected as this may sound......

I am sure if they are reading all the threads related to his passing away......

They will for sure learn & realize how much his personalia impacted all of our lives at many levels.

I apoligize if this does not sound right due to language translation on the fly....

But yes he did that and more, and execpt for a few close friends....no one expected this.

For me ( even over the web ) it all started with: "So Gary, what is the plan for Dimond Lil"

I am proud to say that the corrugated floor was sourced to a link of mine.

I would like to pass along my condolences and prayers to Gary's family.
