He was a member of the 9th Infantry and was a Jump Master, teaching others to jump from planes.
He spent his entire life living in Oklahoma City until the mid-90’s when he moved to Edmond where he lived until his passing. While living in Edmond, Gail was a member of St. John the Baptist Catholic Church.
He enjoyed visiting with friends and family whether that was while watching OU football, NASCAR or the New York Yankees. He always enjoyed the family trips to Lake Tenkiller as well. He did enjoy fishing.
Gail was a kind person who loved his family deeply. He taught his children to always be nice, respect and help others. Also, be the job big or small, do it right or not at all.
