To Gale, I will miss your spirit of fun and family, including us that are out of your immediate family. I have always felt like a valued part of the crew!
To Norma, I am sorry you two had to go through so much pain and for so long. You both have always felt like an Aunt and Uncle to me. Please let yourself rely on other people- that is one of the ways God takes care of us! I have always said that I know God is with me by the people he places around me.
Gale's love is still all around you too. You know he is so grateful to you and the kids for his remaining care, love , and attention. I pray for your willingness to go through all the parts of your grief for Gale. This will bring peace to you.
I love you, Christi

Dear Norma,
It's been alot of years since those days at Growth. Looking back, I'll always remember the "good times".
Gale always had such an infectous smile that always made you feel good.
You and your family are in my prayers.

Dearest Norma - you and Gale have been such treasurers to our lives. You two opened Ron and I to so many new and fun experiences, from square dancing, camping, canoeing and cruising the Caribbean. We have such wonderful memories with both of you. We will miss him so terribly much. We appreciated all the advise he has given over the 40 years we have known both of you. Our kids have loved you guys too as they have known both of you their entire lives. They have special memories of all our canoe trips. So much so, that they want to pass that experience on to their kids.
I don't know how to wrap up in a few words what you and Gale have meant to Ron and I, but just know we love you both and are so grateful to have had you in our lives. Much Love, Denise
