The lessons he taught were far-reaching. Many continue to do this job with fond memories and good tactics learned by working with Gary. Anonymous You havent been forgotten Deputy. Anonymous To Deputy Gary McCormack, his family and his fellow officers with the Greene County Sheriff's Department: Wives Behind The Badge, Inc I was just thinking about you as I often do. I went out to your graveside today. I really miss you being around. I know you are constantly with us, but I miss seeing your number on my caller i.d. daily. I miss that goofy laugh you would blurt out when we were telling stories. I miss seeing you show off that superman logo you had sewn on to your vest. I guess I just pretty much miss everything about having a friend named Gary McCormack around. Some things have recently came up that have been very trying. I'm really trying to keep a smile on my face and keep on keepin on. I am very lucky to have known you as a friend and will never forget you. Sergeant Jeff Ussery Gary, We miss your stories here in the Dispatch Center, no one could tell them like you. John Saunders Happy birthday Mack. We miss you lots. Anonymous Miss you buddy. Cpl. Chandler Garrett REST IN PEACE on your anniversary to heaven. officer Delamier Well it's been a year today. It just seems like yesterday, we would just like to say that we miss you and love you. We are so proud of you and your service to the community. You would be so happy to see how many lives you have touched. You are a hero. Robert Bonnie Hobbs To Deputy Gary McCormack and and his loved ones: Phyllis Loya Gary, We burried another this last week. I could not help but think of you all week long. It has nearly been a year and I still can't believe what happened. I was looking through some of your in car videos the other night, I ussually just randomly pick one from time to time and the one I selected unknowingly was a DWI you and I did together. You have been a common topic as of late. Should have the highway renamed in your honor soon. Gooden has worked hard on it. Sgt. Jeremy J Lynn Gary, we buried another brother yesterday Monte Ruby. I know he and you are on the range together now. Both of you were very special to me and it has been a year I don't ever want to have to live through again losing two of you to the Lord to serve in his department has left me short handed. I want you two to serve him well. Rest in peace brothers. Joe Director Joe Rushing Gary you where an awesome friend and co-worker. I know God had a place prepared for you. Rest in peace brother. Officer Davis Gary, I'm just sitting here reflecting on life and thinking of you. Every single time i think of you dancing the ymca at my wedding reception i laugh. I think that one moment in time is the memory i choose to stick with because it caught who you were so fully. Whether it was your infectious grin or easy way with people you brightened a lot of lives while you were here. I wanted to say thank you for that. And for being an inspiration to everyone who knew you. Someday we'll all dance the ymca together again. Until then, buddy, know you are sorely missed. Lt Ben Matthews Gary, I finally made the switch to Greene County. And you were right: It's awesome here. The one disappointment is that I can't call and tell you about it. When I got hired, one of my first thoughts was how excited I was to tell you, then I realized I couldn't. It would have been great to work with you again, but I know you are still with me when I patrol. I'll see you on the other side, brother. Deputy Jeremy Grisham Well brother, it's been a while....way too long already. I am confused still by the way I feel. I know that you are gone, but I still find myself saying "Man I gotta call Gary and tell him about this!" Anything that is significant in my life, I find myself sad because I can't tell you. I recently got that Detective job we tested for together. We sat next to each other during that test. We made jokes and cut up with each other to ease the coming pain of a promotional test! I have no doubt that you know whats happening and you are with us all daily. I just don't know what to say. After all this time I find that I am still truly very hurt. I dont know when, if ever, this will all sink into my head. I just cannot believe you are gone. I know you are in a better place my brother and look forward to that day when we are patroling those golden streets together. Thats gonna be a long time away, but I'm sure you'll keep a spot open for me on the squad when I get up there. Just know that you will never be forgotten and will always be in the hearts of those that truly love you. Id break that challenge coin out right now if you were here so you'd owe me a soda! All gave some, some gave all. Detective Jeff Ussery hey they say that u are in a better place but as your sister i think so to i think about u every part of they day and i am sure Robbie dose to when i seen u in the casket i said thats not my brother and it was i couldent stop crying or thinking about the magic tricks u always showed me i miss them alot nothing has been the same sence u died we went to your grave i broke down after wards i thank u for what u did for everyone i am crying writing u this i love u so much and think about u all the time love your little sister Allana i love u hey they say that u are in a better place but as your sister i think so to i think about u every part of they day and i am sure Robbie dose to when i seen u in the casket i said thats not my brother and it was i couldent stop crying or thinking about the magic tricks u always showed me i miss them alot nothing has been the same sence u died we went to your grave i broke down after wards i thank u for what u did for everyone i am crying writing u this i love u so much and think about u all the time love your little sister Allana i love u Deputy McCormack your work on this Earth as we know it is now done.

I miss you and love you more than words can say. Your little sister Allana Allana I am riding in memory of Deputy McCormack in this year's Police Unity Tour. I would like to meet members of his department and family at the Memorial Wall when we ride into D.C. on May 12th. Sergeant Stephen Vaughn It is hard to believe that it has been six months, some days it seems like yesterday and some days it seems like it has been years. We think of you every day. You touched so many of us and I will never forget you or what you did for all of us. I know you are still with us each day and you are looking over us from that great place. Sergeant Brian Sells Six months have passed since I last saw your face.
It's been almost five months and I still can't believe it. I think about you everyday, Gary, and I miss you. Officer Jeremy Grisham Happy Holidays Sarge, not really the same without you. I miss you more than I know how to say, I'll never forget you Gary. PFC Chad Swanson
