My profound sympathy over Gayle's death. I am so very sorry. The years have past so quickly and losing my Christmas Card list from moving has brought this sad news as a double sadness. Gayle and his family, his dad, his lovely mother Olive, who lived across from the Church, and his brother Austin and his lovely wife Toni and the Nicolosi Family where the joy of St. Pius V Parish like so many other families I came to know and love so dearly and missed in my departure back to the North. My happy memories of these families and others remain with me always. May Gayle rest in Eternal Peace.

Gayle was a great man . He was a  great friend to me like no other . He always had time for me and I’m so thank of god putting him in my path

Gayle was one of a kind, that's all I can say, he was one of a kind and one of the most tender hearts I've ever known.  We're all better and more joyful for having spent any moments in his presence.

I remember when Tina Marie was born - he was so thrilled she was a girl and he doted on her often-  he loved you all …but when that baby girl came he was just beside himself-  he shared that with his baby sister ( my mom) and our family that night -  it is one of my fondest memories .  The best thing about him to me was his laugh- he was little but his laugh was huge!  Not another one like him -  and he always made sure that I felt loved by him-  I will miss you uncle Gayle-  fly high and celebrate in heaven with momma … until I see you again-!❤️❤️❤️❤️

Austin we are extending our most sincere condolences to you and family on the loss of your beloved brother.  May you keep his memory alive in your heart always. God bless you and family. 
Sincerely, 
Darlene and Ray Gracia and Family

I have known Gayle for over 25 Years. Everywhere Gayle went He was a light and inspiration for everyone he met, You had to love Gayle the very first time you met him. He was one of Kind. He was at the front of the Line When God Created him with the Gifts of encourager , bringing laughter, Light , Brightness and Love. He will be greatly missed here on early but heaven is having a blast with him running around ministering in heaven. Looking forward to seeing you in our celebration of life my brother and friend. condolences to family and friends.

I will always remember Gayle for his enthusiasm in sharing The love of Christ with those in prison.  Many came to Christ because of his genuine concern for them. He truly embodied the message of Kairos. To God be the glory.

I will always remember the joy and the love of Christ that Gayle so fluently displayed at the Kairos's at Eastham. What a joy it was to see him so boldly share the love of Christ both to those incarcerated and those not. Although I have seen or talked with him in several years, I think of him often and share stories of him even today. I can just see him dancing and jumping around with Jesus right now.

What a wonderful man of God!

In Christ,

Coy Reese

Hundreds, if not thousands, of men in white, Kairos volunteers, and prison staff have been blessed by Gayle who continually demonstrated his love for his fellow man. He truly embodied the love of Christ and delivered it with grace. 

I remember at Kairos during lunch, he would run around in circles getting everyone to yell "Praaaaaiiiiseeee God!" During one of the lunches, I would set aside my guitar and he would end by running up and jumping up into my arms. It was great fun and everyone laughed.

There is an emptiness in my heart, but I know where Gayle is. I love him and I will miss him. God bless you Gayle.  Mike Lovelady

Thanking God for you, Gayle, for your rich and light-hearted ministry for many years to incarcerated persons in the Kairos prison ministry. You always made us laugh, and see the light of Christ, in an often dark and dreary place. Your running around the room during the "Amen" of our song before and after meals, in the midst of 50 amused prisoners, was a sight to see! They all knew you represented a loving God who loved them too. May your family be comforted, and always cherish your memory, as your Kairos team does. May the thousands you've ministered to remember you with a smile of thanks.

Gayle was always so kind about helping others; he would pick up my late husband Joe and occasionally me and take him/us to various church functions and then home.  Gayle sponsored both of us into Cursillo and got us interested into working in the prison arm of Cursillo, Kairos.  
Deepest condolences to the family.

Linda & family, 

My sincerest condolences to you on the Loss of Gayle. He was a great inspiration to many. He will be missed at St. Pius. Blessings to you all.

My dear Linda and family
We have lost a very dear friend as you have lost your dear GAYLE AND DAD. He certainly left his footprint on this earth.
Whom ever he met he touched their lives
both as a friend and a Christian. He told such touching stories and the funny ones
that made you laugh. He set the example of a life we should all live. May he rest in peace
and  today Heaven is enjoying what we lost.
May God Bless your family
Carmel Baker
