Condolence From: Brandon Lessley
Condolence: Gerald and Payne have been our neighbors for the last 11 years. They were the Pillars of the neighborhood! Gerald adored his wife and watching them work in their yard together and keeping the deer fed was always a treat. Gerald was just such a kind man. Anytime you met Gerald or he drove by he always slowed to wave and had a smile on his face. Gerald and Payne shared a love for doing things together that would make your heart melt!! I wish I had known him better than I did. His loss will be felt by everyone around. I know he enjoyed every minute on this earth and he left a great impression on those who knew him. More than he ever realized I think. The whole neighborhood adored Gerald and Payne. May Gerald’s family rejoice in his life and find comfort in this difficult time.
