I've known Gail for what holds a life time of memories. She always found a way to help me be strong and stand my ground. She was a wonderful grandmother to my children and a wonderful friend and mother-in-law. Life without her will never be the same. I know we have 2 angels watching over us now. Rest in peace Gail, I know heaven has a special place for you.
