Gayle Wilke Obituary
transferred to Houston in 1975 where he raised his family. He was married to Lois Wilke for 55 years, and they have three sons, six grandchildren, and two great-grandsons. Gayle was active in a variety of ministries at Spring Baptist Church. We remember him as a faithful servant of Christ, devoted husband and loving father. A celebration of life and service will be 10:30 A.M. Monday at Spring Baptist Church 1027 Spring Cypress Road, Spring, TX with Senior Pastor Dr. Mark Estep officiating. Prior to the service a brief committal service will be conducted at 9:00 A.M. Monday at the Klein Memorial Park 9714 FM 2920. In lieu of flowers we request contributions be made to the Vision 20/20 program at the Spring Baptist Church.

Our Dear Lois, Henry, Mark & Keith,
Our hearts were saddened so deeply hearing of the loss of our dear friend and true servant, Gayle. We know our loving Heavenly Father welcomed him with open arms, just as those same loving arms will wrap you in His grace and mercy, love and peace. Although we cannot be with you during this difficult time, we are continuing to lift you all up to the Father. May you experience the love of Christ in others just as you and Gayle have demonstrated so unselfishly to countless friends and neighbors.
