He was a loving husband, father, and grandfather who enjoyed hunting, fishing, and being

outdoors with family and friends.

Those left to cherish his memory are his wife of 52 years, Sandra Terry Gerald; his son, Clint Gerald,

of Wesson; his daughter, Terri Gerald Lowery (Tony) of Sumrall; son, Billy Hawkins of Pearl; four grandchildren,

Megan & Tucker Gerald of Brookhaven, and Tyler & Lexi Lowery of Sumrall; brother, Hugh A. Gerald of Starkville;

sister, Carolyn Theriault, of Jackson; and two nieces and one nephew. He will be greatly missed by all!

    Thought so much of him. He and his wife were a team and were so good to help and just a hard working and honest man. So sorry for your loss. May God give you strength and peace.
