FROM SAM LUPTAK JR
To all the friends of GWF, particularly those that regularly attend Galacticon. It is with great sadness that I inform you all of the tragic passing of Gary Atkinson. Gary has been an 11 year regualr attendee at Galacticon, was one of the originators of the Filsinger Corporation Bootleg sets, and most notably was the creator of TroyBoy and the Last Knight among a host of other characters. Beyond all that though, and much more importantly, Gary was a father (to Broc and 2 daughters) as well as a pastor, and one of my best friends. He will be greatly missed I'm sure at Galacticon as well as by all his friends and family. Just thought everyone would like to know. SAM
MY COMMENTS
Very Sad news
Gary was a great guy and a good friend. Remember meeting him and Broc years ago with Sam Luptak and became good friends
He will be missed and my prayers will be with the Atkinson Family
