I have been blessed with the gift of a Chronicle career and the honor to live in Muskegon. Gary Ostrom has been a key part of it all. I was heading our Grand Haven bureau in late 1990 when I was brought back to the Muskegon office to be business editor. I am sure that as publisher, Gary had a lot to do with that. Over the next 17 years, Gary and I had an outstanding working relationship that served our readers, our newspaper and the community very well. It was a joy to go to work with the team he assembled. By example, he created the family that lives on as The Muskegon Chronicle. For that, this man's life work blessed me and my family. I am thankful.

Gary was a classmate and fraternity brother at Stetson University. He taught me how to quietly make a difference in people's lives. While I was not able to fully appreciate his gift at the time, I eventually learned the genius of Gary Ostrom. Some of the success of my ministry today is because of what Gary taught me. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
