My name is Tom Joad Sr. Also known as Pa. I am a thoughtful, good man. I have a beautiful wife, Ma Joad. I have six children. -Tom (my favorite) -Rose of Sharon (the oldest daughter) -Al (the cocky one) -Noah (the oldest son) -Ruthie (youngest daughter) -Winfield (youngest son) My family is very important to me, and they always come first. Me and my family currently reside in California. We are in a struggle trying to get back on our feet. We just came back from our long exhausting journey from Oklahoma. We came looking for the Promise Land. Im a hardworker, who doesnt give up, yet when placed faced to face with pressure, I tend to crumble. I have a bad temper. I am very independant.
