How sad to read the obit for Gary VanNess. We have lived in West Virginia since 1975 but Gary and Sharon Van Ness were our best friends since 1965. Our friendship grew through the years and we have visted each other different times. Your community has suffered a huge loss when they lost one of their own. Gary was a GREAT man and friend and will be grealy missed. But our memories of our friendship will live on forever. Kaye and Pewee Gibson
