Gary was born Sept. 27, 1951 on his maternal grandparent’s wedding anniversary. He thought this was great, because no one would forget his birthday. On this special day, he was born to Charles and Laura Saylor, and his big brother, Tommy. He spent his childhood at Daggett Elementary and then high school at Trimble Tech in the ROTC and finished as a Lt. Colonel.

He loved cooking, NASCAR, working and building things in God’s great outdoors, and being at the gun range, but his special gun range was the NRA Whittington Center in Raton, New Mexico. He loved having his Federal Firearms Dealer License and his business, NSI Gunworks and Engraving until just recently. He enjoyed his career at City Automotive in Azle from 1981 to 1986. He also worked for GNC for 23 years as a truck driver before going to Lowe’s store 1969 in Weatherford, where he became the Delivery Manager from 2010 to 2018.

Thank you all for being here for his bride and holding her under your wing for him. She was the pride, joy, and love of his life. He loved you all very much and wants you to remember him active and busy, not being sick, for he is healthy and very much alive in Heaven, and hopes to see you all again one day.
