I was searching for something and came across this thread. This is Kirsten, Gary's wife. I can assure you he is alive and well. His main passion right now, and for the past several years, is helping the local schools and high schools with robotics. He participates in FIRST and travels to Houston and Detroit to help out in the machine shop at the national competitions.
If anyone has questions for him you are welcome to email him at
