For those of us that know Gary Middleton class of '65, Capitol Hill High School, Oklahoma City:

We are deeply saddened by the loss of our dear friend and founder, Gary Middleton. For those of us who were fortunate enough to work with Gary, we know he never shied away from a challenge. He started Magna IV in 1975 with the help of his wife, Pat, and worked tirelessly to grow the business into one of the largest print and marketing companies in the mid-South. We’re proud to follow in his footsteps and continue his strong legacy at Magna IV today. Please join us in lifting up Pat, Kent and the entire Middleton family in prayer during this difficult time. Gary, we will forever miss your kindness and dedication to serving others. Richard Toumbs

How one man could touch so many of our lives in such positive ways, I just don't know - he was very special to me, and to so many others too. It's been my blessing to have had him as a friend, a mentor - he taught me to trout fish, he danced at my wedding, he worked like crazy for all of us & Gary & Magna Four became a big part of life. He laughed a lot, & we laughed with him. My thoughts & prayers for Pat, Kent & all of Gary's family & friends. A good, good man - rest in peace, Gary.
