Gary was to young to serve in WWI or WWII but was Stationed in San Diego. I was the only sibling present at all 3 of my brothers Weddings. Information provided by sister, Glenna Ruth Little, P.O. Box 114, Kent, Washington 98035-0191 This is a note from Mark Murtomaki: Gary Little (113966769) Suggested edit: Donna was born in 1942, May 14. She was 17 when Joetta was born 1961 April 20. She was 19 when I was born 1962 July 3. I was told by Gary Luttle himself he was dying of Cancer in 2011. I even went with him to a doctor's appointment. He might have told me wrong. I wanted to keep in touch with my half siblings, however when I reached out as Gary asked me to, I got no response. Possibly there is just too much of a gulf to cross. I hope all is well. My thought, it was a great tragedy Donna kept us apart for no appairent reason other than her own. Contributor: Mark Murtomaki (51232831) Dear Mark, I wish I could of met you when you were here. Did Gary show you the family home a couple of blocks from his home. You still have cousin's that live in the area. Gary had a big family with alot of real & step-kids, I believe twelve altogether he loved family. I believe all have left the Kent area. Hope you are doing well and don't be afraid to contact the family. Gary is buried in the Military area of Hillcrest Burial Park Cemetery with his Parents about a mile away.
