Support Medical and Memorial Costs for Gary Kelso
Gary Kelso was called home by a loving God of his understanding on March 26, 2020. Please help defray his medical and memorial expenses as his wife Sandy grieves his passing.
Gary was born in Glendale, CA, on May 5, 1940. Gary and Sandy first met through work and were married on April 25, 1992. Gary passed away just one month shy of their 28th anniversary. Gary was well-known in the South Bay area and loved by many. He never met a stranger, and was always willing to go the extra mile to be of service and share his life with others.
Gary and Sandy attended many church groups, supported numerous fellowship opportunities, and provided unconditional love to their family and multitude of friends. They raised their sons and loved spending time with their wonderful grandsons. Gary loved football and was an avid Rams fan. He served as a wonderful role model for many men and always tried to follow the Golden Rule.
Gary and Sandy Kelso have given so much of themselves to their community, and Sandy really does need your love and support in the midst of Gary’s passing. Funds are needed urgently for Gary’s medical and memorial expenses, but also for Sandy, who is facing medical challenges of her own. If you aren’t able to contribute financially, Sandy could also use physical help such as yard work, home repairs, etc.

I just learned of Gary’s passing two days ago. I’ve always considered you both like my West Coast parents.
After making the decision to become a California girl during a very tumultuous time, it was the Kelso’s who helped me take the gigantic leap of faith. Gary and Sandy picked my first CA home in Burbank next to the studios. They helped me secure it AND even stocked the refrigerator before I ever touched down in Los Angeles. They thoughtfully arranged to have someone pick me up and personally deliver me to my new California HOME. That was twenty years ago!
Gary was always such a gentle giant. I loved him dearly and will miss him sorely. He always had a warm, contagious smile and gave the best hugs. A true gentleman in every way.
Sandy, my thoughts and prayers are with you and the boys during these difficult times. Thank you to those who are willing and able to provide comfort through GOFUNDME donations, rendering service needs, and lighting a memorial candle in Gary’s honor on July 4th. That day had special meaning to him for numerous reasons.
Sandy, I’m so sad to hear of Gary’s passing. You two were such a special couple and I always seeing you together when our paths crossed.
Your love for each other was a beautiful thing to see. Gary will be missed.
Love and blessings I send to you and your family.
