To Ron & Family.  So sorry to hear of Gail's passing.  We have missed your coming down to Mexico and remember fondly the great times we had together & her "love" of cats (not LOL). Our hearts and prayers go out to you all during this difficult time.  Hugs to you Ron across the miles.

To Ron and family. We are so sorry to learn of Gail's death and missed you both when you stopped coming to Mexico. I remember our bus tour to several Mexican towns together. It was such fun to spend time with you both.We got to go on the tour due to a cancellation and Gail let us know the spots were available. Typical of Gail's kindness.
Our best to you Ron from Sandra & Len Saskatoon, Canada

Gail was a shining light to us all.....always positive and so compassionate. I was so excited when i found out Gail and Ron were going to be my next door neighbors. She was someone I could cry to when I was sad, and laugh with when I was happy.Gracious Gail will always be in our hearts. When I think of her I always remember how she would say
 " Ho Yeah" and so I say that now.....a little phrase I adopted from my dear friend Gail

Gail and Ron, a great team who are close to us in Borrego AND Salem and, of course, in our hearts- always close.  I learned so much; the greatest lesson: LOVE goes on.  I'll love you forever my darling friends.

Gail was an "earth angel" to me who now has her heavenly wings.  She was always joyful and so sweet to everyone.  I was impressed by her courageous spirit throughout the last year of her life.  I was miss seeing her in our little Borrego Springs group.  I will never forget her.

We were so fortunate to have Gail as a member of our RoadRunner family here in the desert of southern California.  Her beautiful presence contributed peace and joy to our little community of friends.  We loved her quick smile, her sparkling eyes and soft voice.  She will be deeply missed by all of us.  We look forward to having Ron back with us again as he too is an essential part of the fabric of our community.                 Sandy (Borrego Springs, CA)

It was our pleasure to have Ron & Gail stay in our home several weeks this fall.  It gave us the opportunity to grow ever so close with them both.  Gail's spirituality and love was evident at all times.  We miss her so!

Whenever I think of the Local 280 brotherhood, I think of Gail with a smile and remember all the people she helped, especially myself when it was time to retire.    Anyone who was fortunate enough to have Gail's path in life cross their own was all the richer in blessings for it.  Prayers for the Lord's blessings and peace to all of her family are offered.

Gail was an icon of IBEW Local 280 for many years.  She personally trained five business managers, myself included.  She assisted hundreds of members of Local 280 with her compassion and knowledge  She helped Local 280 and its members through the hard times and the good times with the dignity we all could aspire to.  I am proud to have been her "tool partner" for the six years I had the privilege of working with her.  She will always be remembered by everyone whose life she touched.
