Gary Stallsworth better known as Dad, AJ Balls, Grandpa, or Uncle Buck went to heaven unexpectedly Friday morning June 16, 2017. He leaves behind his "lifer" in marriage Julie, and his children Chad (Amanda) Stallsworth and Jillian (Chad) Finkbeiner. He was loved dearly by his 3 grandchildren Nicole, CJ, and Aiden. Gary is also survived by brothers Ralph Jr (Mary) and Jim (Bonnie) Stallsworth

Gary was born in Toledo to Ralph and Wilma (Edwards) Stallsworth on January 18, 1954. He enjoyed being a brother, husband, father and grandfather. During his adventures in life he loved go cart racing, playing with his trains in the train shed, boating, rocket launching, and exploring on his IPAD. He had a special connection to animals and mostly certainly dachshunds.  His biggest joy in life was playing with his grandkids.

We will forever remember you dad for your unconditional love/humor and epic tag lines such as "Hey Vern?", "Roger that, 4-10.", "Whaaaaats up?", "That's real nice Clark.", "And a one and a two and a come on boys let's get it now!" and countless more.

His family will receive friends at the Castillo Funeral Home 1757 Tremainsville Rd. Monday from 4-8 PM and on Tuesday after 3 PM followed by a Celebration of His Life at 6 PM.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to a charity that benefits animals which would honor his love for them.
