Gary’s Story

Site created on November 18, 2020

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

I want to thank all of the prayer warriors who have been with me since day one bringing Gary to the throne of grace.
Within the last 3 days they have been slowly removing the paralytic meds. This does cause some agitation on Garys part so they are keeping him sedated and have increased his oxygen levels from 50 to 65%.
Today his Dr says she is cautiously optimistic of his healing journey.
His other major organs have remained strong, its his lungs which are under attack..
I'll provide an update every day. Thank you for your prayers!

Journal entry by Becky Doebler

Gary's suffering on this Earth is over. This afternoon he went home to heaven and is now rejoicing with family gone on before him. For our family, we are overcome with grief and sadness for a man who we loved so dearly and has left us far too soon. 
We are very thankful for the support and prayers of so many people who were an amazing encouragement on this month long journey. Please continue to keep us in your prayers as we navigate next steps.
