The loss of Gary Johnston has hit me hard. Since I didn't get to attend the memorial service and reminence with everyone, thought I would share my memories here. Gary was my double's partner in tennis. We always lost my serve, cause I couldn't get it over the net! :-). But Gary never got angry with me...tease me, yes! He had a brace on his knee, but we played hard and had so much fun together. I think we made it to state actually and then lost, memory is a bit murky. He was a great friend to me. I enjoyed connecting with him at our 20th reunion. We talked about tennis, Coach Fryer and his English class. I am glad I had that time. I am so sorry this world has lost him.
