To the family of Junior Gibbs:
Family you have lost such a great person. He was always a true friend irregardless whomever was around and I treated the same. I haven't seen him around or since Fair time a few years back with family and friends. But, whenever or however we always laughed so much. We'd go crabbing And fishing and we would laugh have a great time and one time he nearly fell in over crab pots. I sat there like normal and normally would not laugh at a situation like that and we both just laughed. We go back in early mid 70's when u would dance and do the bump. That's when you got up there and got into it not sit back and watch the fun go by. Sister Mary and all friends were with us and we had a great time. I smile and laugh about the love and fun we all had and were safe about it all. We all had respect for one another. God bless you Junior and sister Mary Mary I called her. You all were the best in the best of times. Much Love to all. Sincerely, Kathie Lord Sherman
