I don't care if you pray or not....maybe you meditate...whatever, please think to send all the best Gary Diamond's way.

We only became close about a year or two ago, when we gave him the Synthzone appreciation award.

He is facing irreversible health issues with uncommon courage and a realistic attitude.

We should ALL exhibit that level of class!

Yes, I talked to Gary yesterday and he is maintaining a positive attitude and still trying to play music at home, although his kb is in the hospital right now.
On top of his problems, his wife, Carol, is experiencing some health issues as well.
They are in my prayers.

Prayers for Gary and Carol
Two beautiful people 💖🙏💖

Trying to plan a day trip to see him, when ever Logan is stable enough for me to feel comfortable leaving the state.

DAMN! I got Gary Kobe Beef steaks for Christmas from all of us here at Synthzone.

Now, I'm afraid to try the damn things.

Russ

I'll try 'em. Gary says they are fantastic.

Gary and Carol, Although we have never met...it feels as though I’ve known you both for years. With all the wonderful things people on the forum have said about you both, I have no doubt they are all true.
You are both in my thoughts and prayers with the hope for comfort and peace at this difficult time.

Gary and Carol remain in our prayers ...

I have long said that the next second is not guaranteed to anyone ... We have all seen terminally ill people live for years, and seemingly healthy people die at very young ages ...

Very recently, the drummer from our band in NY passed after battling cancer for a couple of years ... all five of us were probably closer than most 'blood' brothers ... whenever I called him, he would just say "well, I'm still here, guess the Lord doesn't want me yet, but when he does, I'm ready" ...
My wife's sister has been battling pancreatic cancer for almost two years, but she lives her life as if nothing is wrong ... I call her the 'poster child' for this disease ...

We are all going out of this world the same way ... I can only hope I would have the same attitude as these people when my time comes ...

I was thinking of Gary's PSR contributions while perusing that site today. What a tremendous resource and a real legend did it.

Hoping you stay comfortable and can enjoy your hobbies. God Speed Gary

Gary and Carol,

Wishing you the best and you are in my prayers! I will never forget the wonderful hosts you and Carol were in 2014 at your arranger jam! And that’s not even to mention the tips you’ve given us thru the years. Oh yea I cannot forget the great gig clothing you supplied me with some of it still brand new in it’s original boxes! Those vests are the sharpest around!

Definitely extend our best wishes and prayers for Gary and Carol. I've learned a wealth of things from the Forum and "mass quantities" of what I consumed were courtesy of Gary. Wishing he and Carol the very best for their health and happiness.
