I am so sorry to hear of Gary's passing. My heart goes out to all of his family/friends. My grandson Greyson and I have fond memories of Gary. He was always giving us a laugh or being helpful and he thought the world of Greyson. He was a wonderful man and he will be missed

It was with great sadness that we heard of the passing of our Cousin Gary Boudreau! Our sincere condolences go out to all his family! Gary was one of the good guys and will be sadly missed. R.I.P. Gary!

My deepest condolences to the family. Gary, your art has always inspired me to create and explore artistically. I am forever grateful for your kindness and encouragement toward me and my family. Rest in peace, you will be missed by many.

My deepest condolences to you Shelby and to your siblings and family. I met Gary 5 years ago.. both being from Isle Madame but had never met before.We introduced ourselves as " Jerome Benoit's daughter and Joe the Barber's son " and you have been a part of my everyday ever since. You were incredible.. your musical and artistic talent, your generosity to others, your humility , your sense of humour and dedication to family were second to none.

I will miss our daily conversations, your Tim Hortons hockey picks ( thanks for the week of free coffee lol ), your entertaining phone messages your smile and most of all your love and support. I have incredible gratitude that you were a part of my life.

May your soul be at peace... and til I see you again. Much love.

Sincere condolences to Gary’s family. I first met him in 1994, when he was living in New Glasgow and his group – Midnight Train, if my memory is good – was at the Social Action Center in Little Anse, then the Janvrin Island festival. I was a trombone player who had just been introduced to country music, and I enjoyed his performances more and more as I became more familiar with the genre. I’m still playing but, unfortunately, the trombone was never a good fit for his shows! My sympathies extend to his fans and the music community.

Shelby and Family

I am so Sorry to hear of your Dad’s passing. He was a very kind and generous man. I remember

He donated his time and talent to painting our shop windows a few years ago. May he Rest In Peace

My sincere condolences to Christine, Donna and all the family. Fair winds and following seas Gary

Gary, whenever I see a goalie in the Hockey net, I think of you and our school days.

You were so detailed and magical on those drawers that I ask you to show me how to draw one and you did. We would talk about music and our school days. Always a smile and a laughter when we talked about the past and the present. I never forgot that and never will. Till we meet again my friend, Good bless and I'll see you on the other side for more smiles and laughter. Good bye.

Your friend Curtis

To Shelby-Lynn and family,

My sincere condolences to you all.

I am going to miss his laughter, his smile and his talks everytime he came to Walmart but, most of all his hugs. I will keep playing your CD's you gave me as a souvenir in my car just to hear your voice. REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND!!!

In sorrow, we remember our dear neighbor and school mate, Joseph Gary. He was kind, passionate and extremely talented as a painter. Our graduating class has cherished memories shared as we bid farewell to this wonderful man. May he rest in eternal peace.

To Gary's family I am so sorry for your loss, my heart hurts so much for all of you at this so very sad time....hugs

It was always nice to hear him sing at the club RIP gary

Our deepest condolences go out to Gary’s family.

Many years ago we would go to various dances where he would be playing, he had such a great voice. He played at my parents 40th anniversary back in 1999 as a favour to my sister, she and Gary dated back in the day and always remained friends.

He will be remembered as a kind, caring man.

Shocked at hearing of GARY'S passing. I will always remember our time together in music. Farewell and see you on the other side someday.

Shelby Lynn and all of Gary's children, family and friends our sincere condolences. Gary was a fine man known and well liked by all that knew him. Our prayers go out to you all. I was shocked to hear if his sudden passing. I heard him play with his band at the Legion in Port Hawkesbury a few weeks ago and he was right on. Singing medlies of great dancing songs.

Dearest Family & Friends:

So extremely saddened to hear of Gary’s passing. He was so very kind, such a great sense of humour, a total charmer. I am certain he will be greatly missed. Thinking of you all during this most difficult time. Hugs to all.

Shelby & family, sending all my love and sincerest condolences. Gary was such a nice man. He played at my wedding and we had many memories watching him play. One memory that stands out is kne time playing at Papas Pub when he sang the Thunder Rolls by Garth Brooks, he dedicated it to me because I was pregnant. He sure was a beautiful singer & great entertainer. Sending you big hugs Shelby. Love you. He'll always be with you.

Condolences on the families loss .Im happy to have seen him 2 weeks ago, he was shopping for Ann elderly lady in his building .Always a smile and kind words.

Rest easy Gary you will never be forgotten . I’m sure you are singing with the angels choir.

My cousin Gary was always kind and friendly, He was always ready to help. Gary was such a talented person, gifted both in singing & painting & in the way he cared about people. He will be missed by so many . The painting that he did for me for my 60th Birthday hangs proudly in my living room and is even more special to me now. I will think of him every time I look at it. My condolences to all his family.

Shelby and the rest of Gary’s family. We were heart broken to hear that Gary had passed. He was a very talented man in many ways. Kind, caring and compassionate. He was a soft spoken man with an amazing voice. I remember the first time we heard him sing, we thought it was Allan Jackson on stage. We went to hear him play at the Legion a few weeks ago and had a nice chat with him. His voice was still magical. We were friends for over 30 years, he played and sang many times at our home. We are very fortunate to have several of his works of art in our home. By now he has joined the choir in Heaven and is no doubt teaching the angels how to put a country flair to the hymns. He is with his mom now who he spoke of so often and how much he missed her. Rest in peace Gary. Big hugs Shelby as you go through this grief.

Yvonne & Leonard Sampson, Havre Boucher.

Sending my deepest sympathy to Christine ,Donna & all Gary's family ..He was a very nice talented Cousin..He will be missed by all who knew him..May he RIP..

I am in shock as I read Gary's obit. We haven't seen him in a long time but when he was around Havre Boucher, we saw and chatted with him lots. I admired his painting skills and musical talent very much. We send our deepest condolences to Shelby Lynn and the rest of his family. May Gary fly high with the angels. RIP our friend.

My condolences to all of Gary's Family. I have known Gary since we were kids. I remember walking through Arichat in my teens and hearing him call out my name. He was organizing a talent show for a family who had fallen on hard times. I told him I would sing if he did. He had never sang publicly but agreed to it. He was terrified that night but sing he did and he was amazing. That was the start of his music career and the beginning of a relationship that lasted a lifetime. Music has a way of drawing people together, and a few years later we met by chance at Michelin, me with a broken foot, and Gary driving ambulance. Music once again became our reunion and we spent the next few years talking, laughing, and singing.

I am broken hearted to hear of your passing Gary but I know that at some point I will see you again, and we'll strum and sing those great old country songs. Until them, RIP my friend.

Keith LeBlanc

My sincere condolences to Gary's children and family. I worked at Michelin with Gary and got to see many of his talents. R.I.P. Gary and may God be with you.

Condolences to all of Gary’s family, extended families and close friends. Gary had a heart of gold and was very talented. Having worked with him, I was fortunate to have purchased several of his paintings plus the ones he so generously gave to me as gifts. He and Paul’s CD as they were a wonderful Elderado team. I cherish all the memories. May God give you strength to carry on in life without him and may he RIP.

Gary’s good friend Vickey

I rememberthe first time i heard Gary singing...He was living in Pictou County then and we worked together at Michelin Tire.....Went to his trailer to drop off a few CDs that he wanted to listen to

When I got there ...I knocked on his door....could hear music from inside ...so I let myself in....Gary was singing Kareoke with his back to me....didnt know I was there....I listened in total amazement while he sang several songs and finally he noticed me

the look of shock and surprise on his face.

So of course I asked him why he wasnt singing in public....not good enough for that was his answer....so began my encouragement and support ....wasnt long before Midnight Train was going concern....we were always good friends and I was a fan of the band....His tremendous vocals were loved by all....and the band was very sought after in many venues throughout the county and in venues far and wide.Gary was a fine man....a very kind man.....a huge talent and a good friend.....hes in heavens choir now....HE FLIES WITH THE ANGELS....till we meet again RIP

My cousin Gary was always kind and adventurous. Always ready to help. He will be missed by many . The painting that he did for me hangs proudly in my living room and is even more special to me now. I will think of him every time I look at it. My condolences to all his family.

Gary and I had a wonderful friendship as we were cousins. We had some great memories especially during the time we were doing the book together J’s Bad Day. We spent hours talking and joking, it was a time I will never forget.

Lots of Love ❤️
