Gary Edward Koch

Gary Edward Koch was born on Thursday, May 3, 1984, in Baltimore MD to Harry Edward and Deborah Lin (Jones) Koch. Gary attended North County High School. From a young age he enjoyed sports. He played baseball, basketball, soccer, lacrosse and football. His 1st favorite football team was the Miami Dolphins UNTIL the Ravens came to Baltimore, and he also shared that love with his son, Nathan. Gary was a lifelong fan of the Orioles. He stayed up on all of the statistics which he followed on and off the season. Gary had a very unforgettable presence about him which he carried everywhere he went. And a knack for giving nicknames to everyone he knew. He had a love for all kinds of music and had hobbies but his children, Nathan and Sophia, are what he cherished the most. Gary will be greatly missed by so many.

Gary is preceded by his parents, Harry Edward Koch and Deborah Lin (Jones) Koch. And both sets of grandparents. He is survived by his children, Nathan Koch and Sophia Koch and his two sisters, Michele Helinski and Crystal Daugherty. 3 nephews, Joseph, Brady and Keagan and 2 nieces Kylee and Megan.
