I finally found you Gary. I have searched for years. I have never forgotten you. OH Gary how sorry i am. How i wish i had been a better friend. I remember your generousity and thoughtfulness when you moved to NYC and stayed at my apartment on W45 Street. I remember you telling me in that diner outside of St. Luke's Hospital you had AIDS. I couldnt beleve you. How fearful i was. I'm so sorry. Then the last time we were together, in 1991 or 92 on E96st, you spared me when we were going to have sex. You may have saved my life. I wish i had taken you for a lover. You were such a beautiful young man both inwardly as well as outwardly. Oh how i regret. I finally can give this closure. RIP Sweet dear Gary. With eternal LOVE... Brian

We met on San Francisco Pride on Jun 24, 1990. After the parade, I sat at steps in two doors down from Uncle Bert's, and there you were. We locked eyes and I was tractor beamed by that amazing smile of yours. We dated, loved, laughed, introduced you to my friends. I remember vividly the day I was in Cafe Flore and read this obit the day the paper came out. You touched many people. I remember you fondly till the end of my days. Rest my dear. Love, Orlando
