Some forever, not for better. Some have gone and some remain. All these places have their moments, with lovers and friends I still can recall. Some are dead and some are living. In my life, I’ve loved them all.”They would also like to sum up the life of Gary with these 3 words “Larger than Life” and send this message to Gary “You may be gone, but you will never, ever be forgotten. You will always live on in all of our hearts.Gary is survived by his wife of 19 years, Kelly Dahlberg of Lake Havasu City; son Dwayne Dahlberg of Las Vegas, NV; daughters Janna Dahlberg of Henderson, NV. and Heather Anderton and her husband Paul of Lake Havasu City; Granddaughters Devyn Dahlberg and Ezra Anderton; sisters Pam, Patti and Carol and brothers Bill and Wade and their families and his ex-wife Jean Dahlberg of Henderson, NV.
