Dear Family and Friends of Gail, I regret that I never met Gail, but as an Administrative Assistant at the Norwalk Community Health Center, I communicated with her often by phone and e-mail to schedule meetings and arrange conferences. She was always helpful, cheerful and efficient and made my job easier. I will miss her and keep you in my thoughts.

Dear DeAngelis Family,
Gail was a kind friend and classmate to me. She was a smart, funny, caring person who always had a quick smile for everyone! In our yearbook she wrote under future goals to become an executive secretary. She met and exceeded that goal in her role at Norwalk Hospital and I'm sure she leaves that place with a huge void. She will also be missed at our upcoming 40th reunion in June. I will keep your family in prayer for the weeks and months ahead as God heals each of you in your sorrow.
