 Gilly MacDougall
has never in his entire life, set foot off Church grounds. "There is no
reason to go anywhere else," he claims. "I have everything I need right
here!" Gilly MacDougall is the last surviving son of Iowa Real Estate
Tycoon, Filmore MacDougall. Fillmore left billions behind for Gilly
and the Landover Baptist Church.
With his money, Gilly has bought The Gilly MacDougall Christian Light
Of No Compromise Hotel and Resort. On any given day, you can ride
right up to the front door of that hotel and Gilly will be outside to greet
you. Pastor Smith remarks, "Gilly works, sleeps and eats in that hotel,
it is
one of the finest hotels in Freehold. He cleans the signs with his
own spit."
Although Gilly was diagnosed with Alzheimer's 30 years ago, he is still
given licensee to run his own hotel. "People don't seem to pay me no mind,
I just stay out of trouble, and try not to get my clothes muddy," he says.
"My pastor says I don't need no money, that the Lord just takes care of
all my needs. He had me sign a big piece of paper that says I get to see
my dog when I go to heaven. That's all I care about."
Gilly is well loved by all Landover members. For legal purposes, he
must be listed here as a major donor.
