I guess I should have continued to say that his mother, Velva Rowe Gibson, passed away 8-13-1998. She never got over Little Duck's death. She helped me a lot when I started doing research. In our talks, she said several times people had visited the Vietnam Wall of Honor and brought back pencil tracings of his name to her. She said they meant well but each time it just upset her all over. His father, Norman, died 1-21-1995. They are buried at the Resthaven Cemetery. I understand his wife Carolyn remarried in the early 1970's to a David Adams but I don't know any more about him or her.
