Gary was not only my "go to" guy for anything electrical, he was also my friend. I was always confident in recommending him to my friends because I knew he was honest and dependable. Pam and I are praying for the Draper family during this heartbreaking time. Trust Jesus. Larry and Pam Shetwood

The first time we met Gary, was when we were installing a washer and dryer. We were so impressed with him and his work that we asked if he would do the electrical work at our new "old" home, we would soon be moving into. Now this is how honest Gary was, he gave us the name of another electrician as what we needed done was too big a job for him. We still called Gary for all other jobs over the years. As everyone else said, he was always smiling, kind and helpful. We eventually got a chihuahua and a whole new conversation began. He loved Little Bit, and always said Little Bit was a bit larger than our Snicker, and would laugh and laugh.
Your friends,
