Saw on Facebook that Gary passed away, I can't find any other information and I'm hoping it's not true. Might be too recent for more details right now.

Sadly it's true. Both authors of the Making of Jaws 2 book confirmed it on their page. Donna Wilkes also commented, and had known he was terminally ill after speaking with his family.

She talked to Gary a couple of months ago and said he was at peace with his situation.

I learned about it back in May from his sister, was really taken aback by the news.

I guess it was bone cancer. Damn cancer, it's claimed so many. 😞

Just got back from Martha's Vineyard and was watching JAWS and JAWS 2. That got me looking up fave characters. Was sad to read the news. R.I.P. Gary!

Eddie was my favorite teenager in the movie. What a cutie pie. 
