“Gary was a dear friend. I had the privilege of working with Gary in the process buildings at USEC. He loved his family dearly he talked about them all the time. When I hired in as his coworker he showed me the ropes. He became my dear friend. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Sincerely Gary Puckett.”
