What a day! What a day!
Yes. This was a grand day in the history of the Gay-Parker family of Robert “Pa Bob” Gay and Lillie “Ma Lillie” Parker Gay.
For United States Marine Corps Private First Class, George Lawrence Gay, the third son of Pa Bob and Ma Lillie Gay, was recognized posthumously for his valorous service as a United States Marine from Montford Pointe during War World II.
Family comments were shared by Private George Gay’s oldest son Dr. William Gay and by Private George Gay’s younger brother and the only surviving sibling, Bishop Robert J. Gay, Sr.
A number of Private George Gay’s grandchildren, nieces and nephews also attended the ceremony.
