To Pat and Mike and Colleen; wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed Gerald Davey, I thought he was a very nice man and he was a good step-father to Pat and Mike, I remember when Pat went out with me and we meet up with tow guys and Pat went out with one, and didn’t make it home when I did, so my mother and I went over to there House to help fine Pat and Gerald was very concern but not mad. I thought then he was a very nice person. He always tryied to look out for Pat. I will miss gong over and visiting him,I will think of him often. God Bless you all, Mrs. carol Becker.
