Tony & Kim-thank you so very much for allowing me to be with Gail & both of you the last days, hours & minutes. Tony, you & Gail were Ron & my best friends for 40 plus years and second parents to Steve & Rhonda. Gail was such a sweet and fun loving person who has left a huge hole in my life but I know that her & Ron are together & watching over all of us.

To Tony and Kim,
You were so loved by Gail. Tony you were her strength and life long love. Kim, I remember when she brought you home, she was so proud of you and wanted nothing more than to be your mommy. She loved both of you more than life and I know the same is true for both of you for Gail. It seems the world stops for a moment when someone we love leaves us. But life does go on. I pray the memories and the love you continue to feel from Gail will fill the hole left in your hearts.

Gail McCarver will live forever in my memories. I have NEVER laughed as hard as I did when I was around her. She had a way to make you feel at ease and loved from the very beginning. Never letting you feel like a stranger. She and Tony and Kim invited us into their fold and made us feel like family. I loved Gail and considered her a friend. I feel that I am better having known her and knowing that she is no longer living on this earth has hurt my heart.
Kim and Tony. I am so sorry for your loss and I pray that you will never lose the love in your heart that she planted there.

Gail and I worked together at Daugherty and CO then USI for a number of years and she was always a delight and joy to work with. I enjoyed working with her immensely and sharing her great sense of humor and compassion. She was forever cheerful, positive and smiling as she dealt with clients who were a pain in the tail but they never bothered her. And all of our clients always sung high praises for Gail.
Anyone who knew Gail was indeed lucky as I feel that I was. We were all better for knowing her...
