Gary grew up in Colorado and California. His family returned to Denver where he graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School.

Gary had many hobbies including fishing, grilling, playing the guitar and listening to and singing along with music. He had an insatiable love for baseball, especially the years he was able to coach his son in Little League.
