Gerald and I married in March 1980 and I remember when he introduced me to Aunt Nell and Uncle Curtis as his “new” wife I immediately felt loved and include included in the family. I will always marvel at how she could put on a feast and what seemed like a matter of minutes, although looking back I know how much work went into the preparations. I also remember Nell telling us that durning an election campaign George H W Bush came in to their home in Houston and ate peanut butter and jelly sandwich while he sat on the hearth of her fireplace. She was a remarkable woman. One of a kind and a true Christian. I am blessed to have known her.
