Gary was born March 15, 1945 in Winnipeg. He retired from Red River Community College at the age of 63.

  • Growing up I was friends with Mark and Rick. You can tell the qualities of a man by looking at his children. All his children were respectable honest hard working individuals. Those were just qualities he instilled in his children but most importantly he instilled his Love. RIP GFP - Posted by: Robin Mondor (Friend of family) on: Aug 02, 2012

  • I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I was lucky enough to have spent 2 1/2 years with the Probetts family. Gary and Georgina were always a loving, welcoming family, who took me in as one of their own. I will always have wonderful memories. - Posted by: Kim Lilley (family friend) on: Aug 01, 2012

  • I worked with Gary while I was at the RRBookstore for almost 10 years. He was a very hard working man & was always kind even though he had to work under difficult circumstances (5 other female co-workers)! He was never afraid of work. May he rest in Peace without any further pain. - Posted by: Alicia Topor (Former Co-Worker at Red River Bookstore) on: Jul 31, 2012
