J. W. was his actual 'initial' name. The initials did not stand for anything other than themselves. (He told me this in person). We were neighbors for more than ten years. He was married to Mildred Rottero of Joelton, Tennessee and they parented 4-children. Jerry Gary, Kenneth Gary, Dianne Gary and Barry Gary. He was a good neighbor and a 'nice guy'. - minpar
