To the Cobb/Selmon family:
You have my deepest sympathy. I remember Gary as a kind person, he would always greet me with a smile and a “hello” whenever our paths would cross. We know that death is temporary because Jehovah God promises us a resurrection of the righteous and the unrighteous. May you look forward to seeing Gary again someday soon.
With Christian Love,
