Garry was a fantastic teacher & year advisor over my school years at Coomie High and I have lots of fond memories, especially when it was Athletics time “Go Sturt” ❤️

I can’t begin to tell you how sad I am to hear of Gary’ s passing. I found him to be compassionate, innovating & caring for all his students and or people in general. I enjoyed working with him in my role as Manager of the Koorie Workforce and appreciated his approach to working with our students. My sincere condolences go out to Gary’s family on your loss. 💔

My daughters Kim, Sheree & Jackie, and I were shocked and deeply saddened to hear that their Principal at Mbn. Sen. College, “Mr. Costello” had recently died. We always thought highly of him, he was very much respected and a true gentleman.
Our thoughts are with you at this tragic time.
