Shockbushing Gary had some interaction with a lot of us here.  His passing has been a shock and sadness to some of us.

For those who are willing, please take a moment to send a card to Gary's family expressing our condolences and our respect for Gary.

I've spoken with the office at the church where Gary's funeral will be held.  They are okay with having cards sent there.

Please address your cards to:


Portia Eckermann
c/o Mount Vernon Christ the King Church
2111 Riverside Drive
Mount Vernon, WA  98273

Here's a link to Gary's obituary if you haven't yet read it:   Obituary for Gary Eckermann

(Thank you, Joe, for finding the obituary for us.)

thanks Carl

Gary always answered my email questions and was
a straight shooter. I regret that I never did get around
to sending him my order and never got to meet
him personally

I will get a card out tomorrow

Thank you all.  I'm sure it will bring some comfort to Gary's family to know that he touched many lives.
