It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Gary Ferns after a long, courageous battle with cancer. His wife of 48 years, Deb Ferns, was his unwavering advocate, fighting valiantly by his side. Gary often joked that Deb chased him relentlessly until he gave in and married her. He admitted she was the best thing that ever happened to him. Together, they raised their beautiful daughters, Casey and Raya Ferns.
Gary worked as a CPA for many years before becoming affectionately known as "Deb's husband Gary" by all the BWB and WOMA ladies. He was a beloved mentor, always ready to offer guidance whether on the range, in a hunting blind, by the fishing pond, or in life.
We will miss Gary dearly but find comfort in knowing he is in heaven. Deb and Gary have many places they call home, and their love has touched countless lives nationwide. In honor of Gary, several memorial services will be held throughout the U.S. at a later date. We will share more information about these services as it becomes available.
