He was raised in Galveston, Texas by his mother and her family, and later moving to Oklahoma, and being raised by his father and his family. Gad attended school in Galveston Texas, Lawton and Boley Oklahoma, and Orange Texas. He enjoyed drawing, walking and talking with people he met on the road. Gad enjoyed his time reading scriptures with his sister, Leah and talking about the Bible. Gad enjoyed watching old black and white westerns and detective shows, and listening to music, especially from 70's and 80's. When he could get away with it, eating Candy corn was his favorite candy, but ice cream, peanut butter and honey as well as strawberries with chocolate were at the top of his list. Gad loved to arm wrestle, take rides anywhere in the car, especially to see the big buildings in Oklahoma City. He enjoyed being with his friends and bowling.
