Gary Lee Kuebler, age 94, passed away peacefully, surrounded in love, on Friday Jan. 10, 2025, at Atlantic General Hospital. Born in Salem, Oregon, he was the beloved son of the late Lowell and Elizabeth Kuebler.

Gary is survived by his loving wife of 76 years, Doris Jean Kuebler, and his sister, Janette Wheeler. He also leaves behind daughters, Dian Lawrence and husband Ken, Carol Massey and husband Wayne, Julie Stuart and fiancée Edwin Zajdel, Sandy Crawford and husband Scott, along with his cherished grandchildren Michelle, Melinda, Heather, Tessa, Cassie, Brandon, Jenny, Kristy, Evan and Josh; great-grandchildren Kayla, Abbott, Ethen, Brooke, Braden, Collin, Raegan, Carter, Billy, Cody, Tori, Tiffy and Taylor; and great-great grandchildren Kaiden, Dylan, Vivia, Bentley, Leila Kayden, Luca, Aven, Ava, and Stevie.

Gary was preceded in death by his son-in-law, Christopher Stuart; grandson, Chadwick Stuart; and brother, Lowell Dean Kuebler.

Gary met the love of his life at the age of 16 in high school, at Laurelwood Academy, in Oregon. They married June 17, 1949.  After attending Walla Walla College in Washington, Gary began his career with General Foods. He was later recruited by Eastman Kodak and moved his family across the country to Maryland.

Upon retirement Gary and Doris built a home on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, where they enjoyed the beach, golfing, fishing and traveling, especially to the Caribbean and Europe.

Gary was not only hard working but loved to stay active; he was an avid gardener, and took pride in his lovely yard, plants and shrubs. He loved spending time with his cherished family, playing cards, fishing, skiing, camping, and loved holidays when family would visit. Gary’s family was his greatest accomplishment, and he was deeply loved by all. He will be greatly missed.
