QOTD – I miss your true passion for the subject of wine. Condolences to you and family.

Gary, thanks for the update, sorry to hear about your loss. I hope you feel better soon and can enjoy the sunshine state. Have great rest of your vacation.

QOTD- YOU!!!!

Cheers, to family, in good times and bad!

Thanks for the update, looking forward to your return.

QOTD: the small pours you use to rinse your glass. Do you do tastings at WL? and if so, can you rinse my glass if I ever show up there?

It’s true – family comes first. All of us here at AmericanWinery.com sympathize with your loss. And also sorry that you’re immune system isn’t holding up it’s end of the bargain.

In terms of the QOTD: we miss taking that break together to sit down and see what your trying “today.” We laugh at your antics and when doing our WEEKLY tasting we often times say. . . . “is EXACTLY” what that tastes like. Gary V. style.

Hope reading these condolences makes you feel a little better right nowâ?¦ there are a lot of people wishing you and your family well!

QOTD: I think we all miss the excitement, the energy, the linking-up-of-thingsâ?¦ us without a little bit of you gets 2008 off to a sad start. 🙁

Let’s turn it around in the next couple of weeks.

Common sense would have allowed most to figure out why Gary wasn’t here for a week. He did mention a passing of a close family friend; you would think he would have funerals to attend.

QOFT: I miss “link it up, Mott” the most or maybe a little Sniffy-sniff. I guess I miss the random references to 80s and 90s pop culture like when you went off about the 30-man code in Contra or you started talking about Thundercats. Awesome!

QOTD: What I most miss about missing this week of WLTV…is reading SS CHris’ comments at the bottom of the screen during your show…

Oh, you know I”m kidding. I miss YOU Gary, of course! Have a great vacation, don’t get too sick, and we’ll see you when we see you.

Thank you for the update and my condolences to your lost.

QOTD: The inspiration and enthusiasm I get from watching your show, not only towards my experience of drinking wine, but also in other parts of my life.

Like you always say family and health are most important- we miss you but you gotta do what you gotta do. Our condolences on your loss.

Love the Naples area- My Dad has a place in Bonita Springs just down the road from where you are.

QOTD- miss the wine knowledge

Feel better and we will see you when you get back.

QOTD: Silly Gary, I miss your smiling face of course! 🙂

Hope you enjoy what’s left of the vacation! Family first!
QOTD: “YOU, with a little bit of me… we’re changing the wine world!” and “Mott – link it up!”

Peace!

Well, you’re a digital bud. A daily pal. Funny thing, most people haven’t met you; I may or may not, but I feel like we’d be buds. Like, ok, that guy “gets it.” And so, it feels odd not to have a bud around. Hope you get some positive down time and can reflect on this as part of life. (i.e., appreciate even *more* what you have–if that’s possible).

Gary, what I miss most is your humor. What you need to do to prevent future illness is to eat at least one apple per day(Pink Lady preferably). No bull an apple a day keeps the doctor away ,it’s true. How about trying the 04′ Markham Merlot, I really got into this wine in Hawaii last week(14$ glass at the Fairmont Orchid) Get well soon!

I think I miss the spitting the most! Get well and hug your family.

QOTD: I miss my daily routine of coming home from work getting a glass of wine and relaxing while watching WLTV.

As has been said, family first! We can wait.

Miss your enthusiasm for wine and life.

Enjoy the time off

I miss the routine! It’s nice being able to come home, plop down on the couch, and relax to the thunder show.

I’m sorry about your family’s loss and it’s too bad that you got sick while on vacation….I understand how that feels- I’m sick too! Enjoy the sunshine down in FL and get some rest before the craziness ensues.

QOTD: I miss watching WLTV in the afternoon. It always lifts my spirits. And I miss hearing about new varietals.

We miss you wit, your smile and knowing that your are well, especially when everyone else either has or is getting-over the flu or a cold.

QOTD: The sometimes obscure references.
Come back soon and get well.

I am not a big fan of my job right now and Gary always brightens my commute on the bus going into work. In fact, his show is the first podcast I watch each day. Miss the show!

Take time for yourself and don’t worry about us G.

I do miss the high energy that comes from the show. I am sorry for the loss in your circle of friends & family. It is tough to loose a loved one, and my thoughts go out to you & your family. As it is, I also wanted to make a point to say that we can go without WLTV from time to time. I look forward to a day when I can afford a video camera(as opposed to spending it on wine). So I can shoot you a small clip to say thank you for all the great shows you’ve put on for us….Cheers,Kirk

Condolences to you and your family.
