The son of Lester Reome and Mary Alice “Sally” (Rice), Gary was born at home in Saranac Lake, NY on August 12, 1947. Gary had the honor of marrying Anne Marie Phelix September 23, 1968, and they just reached their 53rd anniversary. Despite the effects of the dementia, he knew Anne to still be the woman that has loved and stood by his side; he asked her if she would marry him again.

Gary is predeceased in death by his parents and sisters, Mona, and Pam; brothers, Jimmy, Lester (Butch), and John. Gary enjoyed hanging out with his friends around a bonfire along the river and being at home watching old western shows. He especially enjoyed being outdoors and working in his yard. He was a member of the local painter’s union for over 20 years and worked as a supervisor in the removal of asbestos before retiring 12 years ago.
