My Uncle Jerald whom we called Oyster was akind man. He supported me when I needed it at age 16 and he was a wise man. He did not believe me when I told him I fell off the bleachers and knew right away I had crashed on that motorcycle that he had told me to stay off of. A lesson he taught me then, 35 years ago, was not to lie. I appreciate him teaching me that. He was funny and we loved to pick and joke with each other. I knew he loved me and I loved him. Rest in Peace my dear Oyster. Love You!
