We hope this page helps support Gary's family in this difficult time and raises awareness on suicide and mental illness.

Hawke's Bay

For all of you that knew Gary, he was a hard working, loving father to three beautiful children. On Monday, February 6, 2017, Gary tragically took his own life.

Gary will be remembered for his strong work ethic as a farmer, his playful cheekiness as a friend, and his love for his family. Everyone who knew Gary will miss him dearly, and wish that people take this tragic event to become more educated in mental illness and suicide.

This page is to support Gary's partner Marlena and his children Indy (4), Max (2) and Aiden (1), as well as his parents Shirley and Graeme as they struggle to cover the unexpected costs from Gary's passing.

Every little bit helps. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support.
