I first got to know Gary when we stood together in the East enclosure in the late 70s/ early 80s, him and Winky. He always had a quip about the team and the opposition. Over the years, got to know him reasonably well and would always see him at the games as I've only missed about 12 myself in the last 30 years. Last time I sat beside him was at the St Mirren away game with his daughter Angela and he was belting out The Famine Song! Last time I actually saw him was at the home Falkirk game a few weeks ago, he nodded and gave me a wave. He will be sadly, RIP Big man.
