Gary served in 3rd Bn, 6th Marines: was recognized as outstanding Marine of the Battalion; fought with 3/6 in the Insurrection in Dominican Republic, followed by a lengthy and distinguished career in national security. He was a brilliant and dedicated man, with a good heart and a wonderful family. Semper Fi
Words cannot describe what a wonderful friend Gary and his wife, Joye were to this small town southern gal. They came into my life about 13 years ago with a death in their family in GA. I loved them from the first time I meet them I believe. Life can hand us some hard battles but with our faith we will make it and have that reunion in heaven. See you again! Prayers to Joye and Adair and know I am with you in spirit and my heart is broken also.
Gary and I worked together in the 1980’s. He was extremely hard working and a person that given a task would complete it without nudging. He was dependable, friendly and humorous. One fond memory I have of Gary was when he gave driving instructions to a senior foreign government official visiting us saying to go to a certain corner where there was a stop sign and to “stop” then do this and that. The official got a big tickle out of Gary’s explicit instructions telling everyone with tongue-in-cheek that had he not been told he would have driven right past the stop sign. Yes, everyone loved Gary, me included.
I have fond memories of Gary and Joy.
I have known Gary and Joye for over 40 years. They were my first real friends when I moved to DC. As a matter of fact, Gary hung my very first set of curtains when I moved in my apartment. Through the years they have been priceless friends to me and I will miss Gary very much. I used to love to tease Gary a little and make him blush and we would all have a good laugh together. Gary, I’m giving you one for pinch!! Barb
My acquaintance and friendship with Joye and Gary goes back to the late 60s and 70s. Joye and I worked together in the old ID Division (40+ years). Sorry to have lost touch over the past decades but I have fond memories of Gary. We would talk about our experiences in the Marines and laugh (funny after the fact). He enjoyed his career in the IC and was proud of his accomplishments. Sad to see him leave but am sure he is at peace. Chick
Since I was with Joye the night she met Gary I feel as though I have lost my little brother. They have always been like family to me and I have many fond memories of the past 48 years. I’m looking forward to us all someday meeting on that “beautiful shore”. I know he and Tom have probably already had a “cool one” and tried to help solve the world’s problems. Sent with lots of love, Dot.
My wife Nawal and I have known Joye and Gary for more than 24 years. As neighbors in Mclean, virginia I used to see Gary at least twice a week. What a wonderful person Gary was. Knowledgable, helper, down to earth and a real friend. We will never forget his brotherly assistance to us in many things. Gary did not know how to say NO to anybody asks for help or opinion. Gary dedicated his life to his country and his family. A person with high manners , excellent characteristics and appreciation of friendship. Gary we will miss you. May the Almighty GOD bless your soul. Now you are in a better place. Abdallah and Nawal Sbeih Mclean, Virginia July 30th, 2014
I’ve known you both since the early 80’s and you have always been a model family full of compassion and patience. Gary was the bravest person I’ve ever know. Never complaining and suffering way too long. May he be in peace and comfort.
From my first encounter with Gary, overseas in the 80’s, to my last, he remained an extraordinarily giving and personable colleague, and, more importantly, a loving husband to Joye and doting father to Adair. He will be missed by all.
Dear Joye, On behalf of my late wife Sheila Lake with whom you worked in the file room many moons ago, may I say God Bless. I barely knew Gary but know he was a good man married to a fine lady. Peace of the Lord.
I feel so blessed to have had Gary as a friend over the years. He is truly one of the best human beings I have ever known. He was warm, kind and very caring about others. God bless and keep his soul in Heaven.
My deepest sympathy to Joye and Adair. I will truly miss Gary, but will remember the fine times we had shared–lots of fond memories!!
Joye and Adair, I was so disappointed to hear that Gary had passed. I enjoyed working with you and meeting Gary. You were such a lovely couple with wonderful personalities. We will keep you and Adair in our prayers.
We shared many good times with Gary and Joye both overseas and in the US. Gary was a good spirit and cared about making things better. His unfortunate disease didn’t stop this until he could no longer fight it. We are glad that he no longer suffers and give our love and prayers to Joye and Adair.
Please accept my deepest sympathy on the death of Gary Wyne to all of the Wyne family. Love and prayers from your old neighbor, Maura Mulvaney
We had many fun times and memories but never enough! Dairy Queen will not be the same without Gary. All our sympathy to Joye and Adair. Larry and Kay
Gary was a wonderful man whom we first rented from and then became neighbors to. He was generous, kind, a patriot and a man of faith, and a terrific conversationalist. He brightened our neighborhood, always helpful, always cheerful. He deeply loved his wife and daughter, and lived a life of dignity. He is home with the Lord; and he will be missed by all of us.
Sending our heartfelt sympathy to Joye and Adair. Twenty-five years ago, we met the Wynes overseas and on our return home, continued our friendship in the DC area. It is hard to believe that Gary is no longer in our lives. With Joye and Adair at his side, he fought a brave battle against a relentless disease. We are grateful we had the opportunity to know Gary. He left us with so many good memories of life events & fun times that we celebrated together. He will be missed. Love, Bobbie &Stan
Our prayers and thoughts will continue to be with you, Joye and Adair, now and always. Thinking back over the all times we shared here in Virginia and overseas for the past 32 years bring back memories of laughter, friendship and career. With each encounter Gary was always smiling and thankful for the life he shared with his caring wife and beautiful daughter. Thank you, Gary, for your service protecting our country both by your military service and as a government employee. We will miss you Gary!
Joye and Adair, my heart is broken with yours. You have been Gary’s angel for so many years. Now he is your guardian angel forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Gone But Not Forgotten. Such a kind and generous person. Once a Marine always a Marine….Thanks Gary. Such a gallant fight and such a devoted wife and daughter. We love you Joye and Adair. Only you, Gary, would haul a chicken coop for a friend. Rest in Peace.
What a joy to meet the kind hearted spirit of Gary and lovely wife Joye. Their’s is a true love story. My heartfelt condolences to Joye and Adair. He loved you all so much and was so grateful for all his blessings in life.
Gary and Joye, You brightened the corner of Audmar and Enterprise for many years when you lived in Broyhill McLean Estates. We miss you.
Condolences to Gary’s family. I’m so grateful to Gary and Joye for having sold me the little home that I cherish. Gary and my late husband both succumbed to the same illness.
Joy, I am sorry to hear of Gary’s passing. I enjoyed getting to know him when you owned the house across the street and we used to talk about home maintenance issues and share ideas and political commentary :-). I will pray for your family. Bill
Joye, I’m so sorry to hear about Gary. I have a lot of great memories of you and Gary. Both of you will always be in my prayers. God Bless you!! Bill
