"He was seventy-two when he died, trim, strong, easygoing, seemingly infallible, and though he was my stepfather, I always thought of him as Daddy."
Explanation : Hunter Jordan was Ruth's second husband and the father of four of Ruth's twelve children. He was also James McBride's key male role model. Hunter was known to James as "Daddy." Hunter worked for the New York City Housing Authority as a mechanic. Soon after her first husband died, he met Ruth, married her, and had four children with her. He, like Dennis, was a staunch conservative. He believed in God, family, and education in the same way as Ruth did. When James was a teenager, he died of a stroke, and his entire family remembers him fondly. He is half-Native American and half-black. Before marrying Ruth, he had a privileged existence that included residing in Virginia, Chicago, and Detroit, as well as running an illicit distillery out of his Brooklyn apartment. He was an old-school man, always well dressed, and uninterested in small talk or discussing issues of race.
