Gary, 72, passed away at his home with his wife and daughters at his side.
He was the son of Roman and Erma (Jutte) Broering. In 1968, he married Elaine Gast, who survives.
Also surviving are two daughters: Wendi (Paul) Moorman and Carolyn (Chris) Broering-Jacobs; two brothers: Charlie and Ronnie (Pam) Broering; three sisters: Janice (Ron) Tobe, Deb (Ken) Poeppelman and Donna Thomas; mother-in-law, Geraldine Gast; four sisters-in-law: Peggy (Rich) Harkins, Kathy (Jim) Broering, Bo (Jane) Gast, Dorothy (Duncan) Abernathy; a brother-in-law, Steve (Lucy) Gast; and five grandchildren.
Deceased are an infant sister linked below; father-in-law, William Gast; a brother-in-law, Gerald Thomas; and a sister-in-law, Alice Broering.
A career with the Beckman & Gast Company, he was both a vice president and plant manager. He gave to his community in many ways. He served as Exalted Ruler of the Mercer County Elks, where he also volunteered as an instructor at the Elks youth golf camps. For twenty years, he served as a volunteer firefighter on the St. Henry Fire Department, and for a time served as assistant fire chief. He was a member and supporter of many other community organizations and was instrumental in the development of both the North Park and the current community library. Living life to the fullest, he and his wife spent their retirement years travelling extensively, working in their garden, and enjoying their grandchildren’s many activities. His son introduced him to the game of golf, and he became the ultimate student of the game. Coaching the St. Henry Girls Golf Team was one of his greatest joys in recent years.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be at St. Henry Church. Burial will follow in St. Henry Cemetery.
