You have been a long time friend and you encouraged many in your passion. Your legacy will live on I'm sure.
God Bless you and your family,

I met Gary in Pomona.
We have a mutual friend and car builder.
Gary was very nice and I felt honored to meet him.
He is already missed.

I never met the man, but I have enjoyed the Goodguys shows in Dallas for years. His reputation and the excitement of attending the events speak loudly for his dedication, organizational skills and passion. Thanks for memories. RIP

What a " GREAT GUY "! You will be truly missed by the many guys and gals that loved hot rodding and just hangin' out with different rides.

Truely a GEM. Every encounter with Gary was always so pleasant. We Worked on several of Gary's Hot Rod's to get his tunes up and running. My favorite saying when I would see Gary. "The life of Gary Meadors" I would always get a big smile!

When I bought my 1973 Maverick Grabber in July of 2005 the first auto show I took it to was the Autumn Get-Together in Pleasanton. The nice thing about the Goodguys shows, was that you could enter any car, new, old, original, or chopped. It didn't have to be a hotrod or a ground-up restoration or anything fancy. So my car fit in before and after I had it restored.
All of the Goodguys shows are great family events whether exhibiting a vehicle or just viewing them. Thank you Gary Meadors for creating such a fun family show. May you RIP.

Me, just a lowly wanna be guy with the "Dukes" in Danville, was treated with the utmost respect by Gary. I will never forget the way he called me hulse, as if I was in the same class as these other guys with their expensive cars. I was a low budget rodder but had a lot of fun at the car events and Saturday morning breakfast meetings.
Our deepest sympathy to the Meadors family.
