Dear Hushy and Cheryl, Benita, Jessica, Aaron, Leiana, and Extended Family, So sorry to hear of this great loss of your brother and brother-in-law, husband, father, and step-father. As the saying goes "it is not the years in your life but the life in your years" and Cary certainly leaves a legacy for the family to be proud of. Also, it is not the number of people at a funeral that marks the life of a great person, especially during these pandemic times, but the countless wonderful memories Cary leaves behind for all who were lucky enough to know him while he was alive. Cary wanted his life more than anything to be celebrated. May his memory be a blessing.
