Gary R. Ewan, 72, of Bozeman, MT, passed away on January 27, 2012 surrounded by family.  He kept his humor and battled courageously with Parkinson’s Disease complicated by Lewy Body Dementia.

During his lifetime, he worked as a computer programmer for Hallmark Cards, Yellow Freight Systems, ERA Reality, and the US Government (USDA).  He also practiced law in the Kansas City area.

Gary lived most of his adult life in Raymore, MO with his wife Myrtle on their horse ranch.  He moved to Bozeman in 2010.

Gary is preceded in death by his wife, Myrtle A Ewan (VanVleet) and brother, David C. Ewan.
