Thank you, Gary, for following your heart and trusting your path.   As I read all of the comments here on this page, I am deeply moved by how many lives you've profoundly supported over the years including my own.  I'm SO grateful that you were at Heartwood when I was a student there.  You were an incredible teacher/mentor-- the skills you taught me have continued to inform my work.  Thank you for your incredible generosity, and your kind, caring, sensitive ways.  And of course your unique humor!   It has been a JOY to know you and I will miss you (already do).  My deepest heartfelt condolences and blessings to Marnia and Gary's son during this tender time.
