September 10, 2018 at 7:46 pmGail was such an inspiration to everyone! She served lovingly and selflessly and would do anything for others. She never ran out of subjects to talk about. She was fun to serve with and I learned a lot from her. Our lunches with Amy in Bellevue were so much fun, I wish we had done it more often. I loved being her visiting teaching partner a few years ago. She kept the conversations lively and interesting. Her love for scrapbooking, decorating, gardening & flowers, jewelry making and everything beautiful defined her. Her lessons in Church were wonderful. She will be missed and it will definitely not be the same without her. Much love and many prayers & hugs for her family… I know how much she loved you all! Our hearts hurt for you, but we know that your sweet memories of her will bring you peace.

September 11, 2018 at 2:09 amI loved Gail from the first time I met her. I was so happy for her and Rob and attended their wedding. She was my friend and confidant and I rejoiced in her pleasures. Gail loved beauty–and would often give me suggestions as to how I could make my surroundings–and my life–more beautiful. We picked out pillows and rugs together and she offered kitchen design ideas when I was remodeling. We laughed and giggled together. She was warm, funny, loving, adventurous, and she adored her family. My deepest condolences to my dear friends for their loss.
