A high school dropout, Gary Farmer came to realize the importance of higher education while serving in the Marines. After his discharge, he worked nights as a desk clerk and auditor at a beach motel to support his family while he attended classes at BCC. Today he serves as one of 12 appellate judges on Florida's Fourth District Court of Appeal in West Palm Beach.
