| Gerald Daniel Weese |
Gerald D. Weese married my mother's sister. Dorothy Lenear. They lived in Spartanburg, SC. He was a very soft spoken man, with a gentle disposition. He was at Normandy during WWII. When I was a child of 11 or 12, I would visit him quite often. He developed heart problems, which he later died of. I don't know when he was born, and have no one left to ask. The SSDI lists his death as July, 1960, but has no birth date.
