Thank you Edgar - hard to believe I have known Gary as long as I have! I saw him off and on at gun shows in the late 1980s - early '90s, but really got to know him in connection with Del Grego's restocking of the George Lyman Parker Invincible, which brought together the seminal parties of the earliest collectors, surviving original Parker employees, premier dealers, and others of the most knowledgeable of the marque. His depth of knowledge and ability to recall and accurately track the historical aspects of who owned what and when never ceased to amaze me! And always his cordial, almost nonchalant manner of sharing what he knew with those of us who at the time thought we knew so much but in fact knew so little! He is indeed a living storehouse of knowledge on Parker Guns!
