I enjoyed many of his presentations and admired his poise. Rest in peace Garey.

Gary did a great job presenting his seminar in Kerrville each year and I know he will be missed by those who worked close with him. RIP.

Faithful companionship, friendship, support, kindness, and an intelligence unrivaled by many I know… that was Garey. I will miss his lighthearted laughter and melodious voice. I don’t know how many times I have called him to ask his opinion about some surveying issue (MOST of the time I agreed with him). I am going to miss his input. Abraham Lincoln said “In the end, it’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.” Garey lived a wonderful life and even though he only stayed for a moment in time, his footsteps are ones that we will follow eternally. Rest in Peace, Garey.

One of the greats. He will be missed.

Garey was a true statesman and real Texas Surveyor.

Garey was a real gentleman and dedicated his professional life to raising Texas Land Surveying to the highest standards. His example of professionalism is forever engrained in Texas Land Surveying. Thank you, Garey. All prayers to family and friends. Rest in peace.

Mr. Garey Gilley was a Texas gentleman and a Texas land surveying legend. Thank you for the decades of contributions to Texas land surveyors and the public. Truly a legacy has been lost, and those who your life has impacted that will continue to carry the torch. Our prayers go out to your family and friends as they grieve your death and celebrate your life. Rest in peace.

Rest in Peace Garey.

Sad to hear. I am glad to have known Garey. Rest in Peace.

What a huge loss to our profession. You will be missed. RIP....Job well done.

We will miss you Garey. Thank you for all you gave to our profession. Rest in peace. Bill O'Hara

I am so saddened to hear this news. I am not where I am today without his assistance and my uncle John Cordle. Such a respected man in our profession. He exemplified what we should be as surveyors. Prayers out to his family and all that were associated with Gary.
