Gary Mander

Gary A. Mander, age 73, of Long Beach, passed away Friday, March 13, 2020.

Gary attended Long Beach schools and University of Southern Mississippi. He worked in sales for many years before entering the gaming industry where he was still employed at the time of his death.

Gary enjoyed presiding as Chairman over the “Y-Not” Coffee Group where he met with his friends to discuss and solve the problems of the world. He also enjoyed playing games, cooking, and spending time with Josie and Pudd (dog & cat).

“One of the first things that impressed me about Gary, was his intelligence in so many areas. I have to believe that he was much more intelligent than I.” – Ms. Annette Mander

Gary was known and loved by many and will be missed by all.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Desmond and Merle Mander.

He is survived by his wife of 32 years, Annette; his step children, Lisa Russ Ladner and David (Penny) Russ; his grandchildren, Chandal, Celena, Chadwin, and Laurel.
