Garry was born on Feb. 21, 1937, in Joseph, Ore., to Barbara and Wilmot Hunt and shortly after moved to Iowa. In 1945, the family moved to Pondosa, Ore., where he attended school and then graduated from Union High School. Garry attended Graceland College in Lamoni, Iowa. This was a highlight of his life, often reciting stories about his adventures there, including traveling home and visiting Yellowstone National Park. Garry was a prolific reader, loved doing crossword puzzles and competed on “Jeopardy” from his living room every evening. And there was never a cat he didn’t befriend. Garry worked for over 30 years for the Oregonian in Eastern Oregon. He was also a truck mechanic in Pendleton. He took care of his mother Barbara until her death in 2003. He was also preceded in death by his father, Wilmot, and his younger brother, Richard W. Hunt. The last two years of his life were in Klamath Falls, where he spent time with his brother and family. In 2015, he vacationed with his family in Yellowstone National Park. In 2016, he spent a week at Wallowa Lake and Medical Springs visiting family and friends from Pondosa. And in November he traveled to the Oregon Coast for only his third time, and finally saw the redwoods. He is survived by his sister-in-law, Nancy Hunt, and his five nieces: Kerri Holley, who shares his birthday, Brookes Hunt- Gilman, Megan Hunt, Tracy Kratchovil and Kathy Bruns. Per his request, there will be no service. Davenport’s Chapel of the Good Shepherd, directors, at 2680 Memorial Drive, Klamath Falls, OR 97601, 541-883-3458, is in charge of the arrangements.

MEETINGS FRIDAY, JAN. 20 AP Photo/Eduardo Verdugo, File In this Jan. 8, 2016 file photo, a handcuffed Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman is made to face the press as he is es- corted to a helicopter by Mexican soldiers and marines at a federal hangar in Mexico City. Mexican drug lord ‘El Chapo’ extradited to United States MEXICO CITY (AP) — Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman, Mexico’s most notorious cartel kingpin who twice made brazen prison escapes and spent years on the run as the country’s most wanted man, was extradited to the U.S. Thursday to face drug trafficking and other charges. Mexico’s Foreign Rela- tions Department announced Guzman was handed over to U.S. authorities for transpor- tation to the U.S. on Thursday, the last full day of President Barack Obama’s administra- tion and a day before Donald Trump is to be inaugurated. The U.S. Justice Depart- ment issued a statement confirming that Guzman was en route to the United States and expressed gratitude to Mexico for its cooperation. A senior U.S. official said the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration took custody of Guzman in Ciudad Juarez, which is across the border from El Paso, Texas, and a plane carrying him departed for New York at 5:31 p.m. EST. The official was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and agreed to give the information only if not quoted by name. The convicted Sinaloa cartel boss had been held most recently at a prison near Ciudad Juarez. He was recaptured a year ago after escaping from a second maximum-security prison through a tunnel dug to his cell. The 2015 escape was highly embarrassing for the government of President Enrique Pena Nieto, and Mexican officials were seen as eager to hand the headache off to the United States afterward. Guzman’s lawyers have fought extradition since his recapture. Guzman, who is in his late 50s, faces the possibility of life in a U.S. prison under multiple indictments in six jurisdictions around the United States, including New York, San Diego, Chicago and Miami. A federal indictment in the Eastern District of New York, where Guzman is expected to be prosecuted, accuses him of overseeing a trafficking cartel with thousands of members and billions of dollars in profits laundered back to Mexico. It says Guzman and other members of the Sinaloa cartel employed hit men who carried out murders, kidnap- pings and acts of torture.
