She was assistant manager at Payless shoe store, where she had worked for many years. She was a devoted thrift shop treasure hunter, especially enjoying discovering cook books from the 30s, 40s and 50s and glassware of any age. In later years, some of her regular outings included lunch and thrifting with her mother, who will miss her dearly. She was an avid reader, lover of cats, and enjoyed both exercising and traveling through her books. Gaylynne was always thinking about ways to help others, and she had a wicked sense of humor.
