Gerald Thomas Anderson

Born and raised in Taylor, and a graduate of Taylor High School 1989. I moved to Austin in 1989 then moved back to Taylor in 2001. Moved to Houston at the end of 2001. I stayed there until 2003, moved back to Taylor and started getting involved with the community as soon as I came back. I saw a need for programs for kids. So, me, a neighbor and a friend started a summer camp for a young man. Some of the guys from that summer, camp include Mark, Jackson and Justin and his brother, Dantrell Hargers. 04/23/2022 06:38 AM
