RE: {Chrysler 300} Gary Goers

Scott – Sorry for your loss and I know your Dad bravely fought through a lot of medical issues for years. Your Dad was so dedicated to restoration of Chrysler 300s and beloved by the 300 Club for his generosity, expertise and the parts that he made. I think there are few of our cars that don’t have Gary Goers parts on them.

Thanks,

Sad news but I think we all that knew Gary knew if was only a matter of time. Bob's post was the first I read today and certainly not a good way to start a day but it is life.

I first met Gary in the '80s when he still lived local and always found him helpful and very colorful. He was the go to guy for our cars and although sometimes slow he always came through. Even after he moved away I ordered parts and he would personally deliver them to me when down in SoCal on a trip.

The last personal visit with Gary was at the New Mexico meet where he had his black 300D and prior to loosing the leg. He was suffering but very upbeat and always had a smile and friendly words and that is the way I'll choose to remember him.

Gary, we will miss you and thank you for all you did for the hobby. Godspeed,

John & Christie Lazenby

Hello,

I wanted to pass along the news that my father, Gary Goers, passed away this morning. He had a stroke yesterday. Massive blood clot in the brain they could not operate on, and almost completely paralyzed. He was taken off life support early this morning. He was 79.
I know my dad meant a lot to those who restored Chrysler 300s. I’m not sure if he was part of this group on FB, but figure many people in here probably dealt with him.

If you have any questions Iet me know. I will pass on funeral information when we get things in order.

Thanks for your time.
Scott
