Gary Joseph Zalenko passed away Saturday Jan 13, 2007 at the age of 28.... He worked as a carpenter for the past 10 years... He is survived by his daughter Alexis, mother and father Cookie and Gary, and 2 brothers Joey and John... Gary was a unique man with a strong presence... He loved to have a good time.... There was never a dull moment when he was around...He was literally the heart of the party.... But his best quality to me was the fact he would always be there when you needed him... He had the sweetest soul... Not to mention an incredibly great smile.... That followed with the best laugh you ever heard... Gary will be missed but never forgotten.. We will never understand why he was taken from us soooooooo sooonnnnn.. Gary will remain Forever Young ......R.I.P

ONE YEAR

Well it's a year Sunday I received that phone call... The call that changed my whole life.... My world was turned upside down in a split second... I NEVER EXPECTED TO HEAR THOSE WORDS 'GARY'S GONE'.... I can't even describe how I felt because I myself don't even know... I felt that it was just a bad dream and at any moment someone would wake me.... But that obviously wasn't the case... So there I was alone trying to come to terms with the fact that my best friend was gone... Well a year later I am still trying to come to terms with what has happened... What I do know is that I am filled with so much emotion that I myself don't even know what to do or how to feel... What I do know is that every day that passes I hurt.... It doesnt seem to get easier.... It just brings on more questions 'what if'... Then comes the realization that you wont be there to answer the phone... But most importantly to put your arms around me tightly and tell me it will be ok...Well getting way to emotional right now to continue... Besides there isnt enough time nor space to say what I need to... But I know you already know... I love you sweetheart... I will forever carry you with me.... Please know I love you and there isnt a day that goes by that I dont think about you... I just hope you are at peace.... Goodnight My Sweet Angel.....P.S. You and my nephew be good... GIVE THOSE ANGELS A BREAK YOU HANDSOME FOOLS... LOVE YA BOTH XOXOXOOXOXOXO

Thinking about you everyday

Gary I cant stop thinking about you... Everytime my phone rings I expect to see your number and hear your voice... It kills me to know that I wont ever have that again... I just cant seem to get it through my head that you are no longer here... I wish that I could just see you one more time.. I want to tell you how much i love you and how special you are to me... Gar I will always carry a torch in my heart for you... There is no one in this whole world who could ever take your place... The memories of you and I togther keep me going cause that is the one thing I still have to hold on too... I love you baby with all my heart and soul... I will be missing you always....

Do not stand at my grave and weep

Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. By: Mary Elizabeth Frye
