Gary developed a deep love for music as a boy and knew then that he had to write his own. It has taken him many years to find the tools and develop a voice, but he believes that it is a God-given vocation. Great music stirs his soul with desire for the Source of goodness, truth and beauty, and he hopes that his music does the same for others. Gary is also an emerging painter and a poet. He enjoys photography, historical and biblical theology, gardening, chess, his small orchard, and birdsong. But his greatest treasures are his wife Luann and their five young children.
