Hello all. Tough news. I received a call from Gary’s wife Susan earlier informing me that he had passed away. I am very thankful that she took the time to give me a call and let me know. He was a good friend to me and always supportive and we spoke on the phone and emailed at least once a week. We talked about our current projects, and our other shared love, short track racing. Particularly sprint cars as he was always interested in where we were racing at next. I will greatly miss our conversations going forwards. He was also an extremely gifted builder as you’ve all seen on here. I just wanted you all to know. Godspeed Gary.
Kyle

Very sad news. I knew Gary only through this and other modeling forums. We hade a few online discussions. He was a very talented builder. He will be missed. My sincere condolences to his family.

Never a good day one of our community member's passes. Gary certainly was a very talented modeler, and I also shall miss seeing his builds here.
My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

I have been at a Loss for words for hours after reading about our Brother in Modeling, Gary Davis. I had exchanged some messages on Wednesday with Gary and had no clue. Gary was always there for info, particularly on Short Track and Sprint cars. But also many other subjects. His advise has helped me learn more, Build More and Think more about modeling. His passing will effect our forum and each individual who had the pleasure of knowing him. My Sympathy goes out to his Family and Friends for Your Loss. R.I.P. Gary Chris

I've known Gary now for the last 10 years and aside from his modeling skillset, has always been an encouraging and enjoyable guy to interact with. His passing caught me by surprise as well as I had just been in messaging with him and had seen him online only hours before his passing. He's definitely going to be missed.
