Although this will be his final legislative session in the state Assembly, Gary can look back on his career with tremendous pride. In 10 different elections, the people of Cayuga, Chenango, Cortland and Onondaga counties chose him as their voice and their advocate in Albany. They were served well by his representation.

On behalf of the entire Minority Conference, I’d like to thank Gary for his professionalism, his achievements and most of all his friendship. I wish Gary and his wife, Marcia, all the best as they begin a new chapter of their lives.”
