With my experience with this other Mr. Gentry and my lack of experience with you, I can honestly say NO, he surely has not been a better Derek than you. With 2 ex-wives, and three children, along with a current wife, newborn son and 3 step sons, and facing a court trial to determine whether or not he indeed DID steal the $862,000,I belive he has not been the best person or Derek Gentry he could have been.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781773772760126873.post-60707863890112783922009-04-16T22:38:00.000-04:002009-04-16T22:38:00.000-04:00Thanks, Caryn!Thanks, Caryn!Derek Gentryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06635471883205219665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781773772760126873.post-68092796707235113752009-04-16T21:46:00.000-04:002009-04-16T21:46:00.000-04:00I love this!
