Although being away from his home town of Dawsonville for many years, Cary maintained a close relationship with many of his former high school classmates and friends. They all marveled at Cary’s strong will, fight and determination to overcome the diseases which were to ultimately take him home to be with his Lord. 

Cary was the most selfless person, full of life and genuine love. He lived by his favorite quote,  “In life, it’s not what happens to you, it’s how you respond.” Let these words live on.
