my brother was truly a self made man.he started with nothing,a share croppers son from missouri..one of ten children.he left home at 17 and made his own way in life.he married delores his be loved wife a girl from minnasota and thats where he built his family and his bussiness. he made a good life for his family. gereld was the nearest thing to a father that we four youngest kids had.he feed us,bathed us and combed our hair,even tho he was only a child himself.it was a great loss to us and mom when he left.he always stayed close to us,even tho he lived far away.he never stopped being our big brother/ daddy till the day he died.he was truly one of a kind.i will forever miss you my sweet brother.please give my beautiful grandson john paul a hug and a kiss for me.forever in my heart till we meet again. carlene
