I think they ended up raising themselves. I think even Dale Sr knew that, and you could see that towards the end of his life, that his kids got someplace despite the mistakes he had made. He was an emotional man who seem to have a very difficult time showing it in public. Privately, I think he was a different man.

It’s now abundantly clear Teresa would have taken advantage of Junior had he not had Kelly handling his brand, finances and negotiating on his behalf. I once heard him say how Kelly took care of everything and all he had to do is race.....He’s very fortunate to have had Kelly step in when she did.....It was just after Senior passed and Junior’s career and popularity was skyrocketing......It was a vulnerable time for Junior....the wrong person could have really took advantage of the situation.
@RubyRedLillies Жыл бұрын
Yes I saw an interview that said he had never negotiated his pay with his dad and Teressa they just paid him what they thought he should be paid and when Gibbs made him an offer it freaked him out and when he met with the next team he told them to get with Kelly he didn’t want to see it. She is definitely her brothers keeper.

Kelly reminds me a lot of my Aunt. Listening to their story reminds me a lot of my own childhood. My grandparents raised me most of my life and my Aunts and my uncle were like my brother and sisters. One aunt was always there with me letting sleeping in her bed if I was scared and basically just treating me like a son. We had moved to another state and she wound up getting married to the man that’s my uncle today and stayed there when we moved back. When I got older my Uncle told me that she had given him an ultimatum if they were to get married in that if I were ever in trouble or needed somewhere to go that their home would always be open to me.
