I had the honor of working with Gail from 1992 to 2003 at Southern Health. During that time, the company experienced many changes and nothing rattled Gail. She was a "real" person full of life and had a great sense of the big picture. Her laugh was wonderful and made everyone smile. I am very sad to hear of her passing and send my condolences to her family.

Gail was a unique person. Always full of laughter and fun. I hope they have nascar in heaven. The glass was never half empty with her it was always half full. (no pun intended). She will be mised by so many and how blessed we are to have known her. May she rest in peace with the angles music playing.

It is so sad to hear of Gails passing. We were co-workers many years ago at Southern Health Services. She was a "very" cool gal. What I will always remember most about her is what a very kind and compassiionate person she was and her heart of gold. Her laughter still rings in my ears. Gail will live on in the hearts of those she loved.
