"Together we aspire, together we achieve" |

I'm very saddened by this news, as I remember Gary being the life blood of the '87 Delegation and making that week in New York one of the most memorable of my Model U.N. experiences.
We were Theta Chi fraternity brothers. He was one
of the first people I met at Rider in 1983. I recommended that he
give NMUN a try and he did. He possessed a burning desire to succeed
and was a master deal-maker in College and beyond. In fact, during
the 1987 National Model United Nations convention, I witnessed his ambition
first-hand as he [representing Colombia] skillfully pumped the delegate
from the USSR for support in passing one of his resolutions on the eve
of the plenary. He was a close, personal friend and I will miss him
very much.
I have met his brother, Howard, and his sister, Eddy.
My prayers are with them.
