Chettiar, all the personnel in the Oncology Department in Bathurst and the fantastic nurses on 2nd West at the Chaleur Regional Hospital Center for the care given to Gary.  Following Gary’s wishes, there will be no visitations at the funeral home.  A memorial service will be celebrated on Wednesday November 23, 2022, at 2 p.m. from Elhatton’s Funeral Home Chapel, Bathurst.  All are welcome to a gathering following the service at 3:30 p.m. at the Gowan Brae Golf Club.  Donations in memory of Gary can be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada, the Children’s Wish Foundation, or a favorite charity.  Blood donations were crucial during his illness, he would be thankful having friends and family donate blood to the Canadian Blood Services in his memory.
