    VALE - Gary CLR4WD

    I learned the sad news today about the passing of Gary from CLR4wd on the weekend . Although I did not know personally I am aware that many of you have had great respect for him, and I'm sure he would be sadly missed by the Land Rover fraternity. I was Um ing and R ing whether I should publish this notice but checking threads today I noticed no one had mentioned it so I am letting you know. The news I got was he succumbed to his long battle with his illness.
    So to Gary's family and friends I offer my sincere condolences and thoughts of what must be a very difficult time.
    God bless you Gary, I hope you have found peace.

    Thank you Mario


    I met Gary many years ago and have supported him ( + as many Landie specialists as the pocket allows) & was pondering whether to wait till he returned - according to his Ebay adverts- for a required item.
    I found him to be a very professional & ethical guy. Very sad news

    Shocked!

    I know knew Gary Well,have been to his house many times and we exchanged phone calls for information both ways.

    Will send my sympathy direct.

    I must say I am a bit shocked
    I was only up there a few months ago,talking to Gary about how close the bushfires had come,and again just before Xmas to pick up a pair of Stratos seats that Gary removed from a 200Tdi defender that he was restoring.Certainly no indications of anything major going on then
