GARY HARKNESS

Gary Harkness left Northern Ireland for Bradenton in 1980 where he was a rear gunner on a milk float in Belfast. He writes, “It was a great move and I found paradise! No more cold rainy days for me.” Gary hooked up with John Horne at a joint on Anna Maria Island called Fast Eddie’s, and has been in the restaurant business ever since because he loves the people he meets.
Gary has daughter in Wisconsin, with whom he’s planning a trip to go back home to Ireland to visit his mother. Gary also loves golf…. and telling lies!!!!
