my name is Jade Smith and I am the grandaughter of Gil, he also has children which arn't mentioned on this site. But most important he has a lovely wife who takes care of him 24/7, I am quite lucky to be the grandaughter of such an amazing man and such an amazing woman, my grandma. She is amazing. Gil still gets fan mail so please feel free to send him fan mail and/or pictures to sign because the george lucus productions sent him a letter not to long ago and Grandpa Gil was very pleased and i think shocked. But please send him fan mail say that you enjoyed all the movies like starwars. Many thanks Jade Smith. |
