Moad on September 6, 1947 in Cashion, Oklahoma. Their marriage lasted for more than 51 years until his death in 1998. Geraldean graduated from Guthrie High School in 1948. She started working for Western Electric in 1961 and retired in 1990 after 29 years of faithful service. She attended Church of God of Prophecy for many years and was devoted to God and her family.
