I've known Gerald and Anita for all the years I have lived in Mtn.Home. Attended church with them for some time and during the 25 years I worked at Walmart, I would eat lunch and visit in McDonald's with Gerald and Anita. I loved these visits very much.

I'm sorry to hear of Gerald's passing. I enjoyed my chat's with him and Nita at McDonald's in WalMart very much and loved to listen to him talk about how it was years ago in Mountain Home. My heart goes out to you, Nita.

I rejoice in the memories we share over so many years, Gerald was my Dear Mother's favorite Letter carrier . He spoke such kind words of the glass of Iced Tea which awaited him at her house on the hot days of summer. May God richly BLESS his memory .
