“Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind…”
Gail brought much joy to this world and helped so many people. A blessing that she suffers no more, but still, too soon gone. She surely left her mark . May time work its heaking powers on her loving husband, Ed, and the rest of her family.
Ed, I am so very sorry. I am grateful to have known Gail & share September anniversaries for 30 years. Even when we moved apart, she still would send a card, she always looked out for me, guiding me in her certain way. God bless Gail as she rests now in peace.
Lots of Love, Carol.
Ed, I am so heartbroken for you, and for all of us. Gail was like a beacon of light. Always positive, always smiling, and I cherished the time I had with her. She will be so very missed. Prayers for some sense of peace for you and the family, until we see her again. With all our love, Margaret and Tom Sampson. 💐
