Sommaire:
Gary was born in 1948. Gary enjoyed being alone and living in a world of pretending made up with his imagination. Gary's favorite thing to do was to observe people and their reactions to situations. Gary especially liked their interactions with other people. Gary's brother was very intelligent and would go to rummage sales (which is what they were called in the 1950s) and collect old books.
