I only knew him for 3 short years, but in that time I got to work on creative material with him, and consequently we became friends. I'll always cherish the brief times we hung out together, at his home, at a few cons, out to dinner, meeting his family -- even if he was a Bears fan and enjoyed torturing me with clips of the Superbowl Shuffle from 85-86 (yes, I'm a Pats fan). It was honor to have known him, and Monte hits the nail on the head -- none of us would be here at ENWorld were it not for Gary. Just think of all the times of fun and gaming we've all enjoyed, we who convene at site like this -- with family and friends, the memories we have, the bonds forged, the shared pleasure of putting aside the trials and tribulations of our personal lives just to roll dice together, talk in funny voices, kill things, and take their stuff. We owe so much if not all of that to Gary, who was the most influential driving force this hobby has ever known. R.I.P. Gary.Sincerely,Jeff Talanian</blockquote>
