Not sure what to say?

A thought goes to Gale's family;in my short tenure at the Council it became apparent what a champion she was.I will correct myself since there is little dout her struggle will be continued by those she touched.

Great challenges seek leaders of comparable measure. We were blessed that our communities found Gale. She gave us intelligence, fortitude, pragmaticism and a compelling vision of what remained in neighborhoods even after they'd been "disinvested." Her work illuminated and created great possibilities all across the country. And while she will be missed by many for a long time, she will remain a great pillar for an even longer time by many more.

May God continue to keep you close during this very difficult time.

Gail will be very much missed.

My sincere sympathy to Ms.Cincotta's family, my prayers and thoughts are with you. May the blessings of close family bonds, good freinds and kind words surround you at this this tough time.

Fighter of equality in all aspects of life...she'll be sorely missed. Peace.

Gale was a fighter and a leader. Those of us committed to affordable housing and consumer advocacy have lost a powerful ally.

To Gale's family and close friends, my condolences on your loss but know that the righteousness of Jesus Christ delivers her now to a place of eternal life. She will be missed but never ever forgotten. What a great lady!

Gale was a valiant crusader who inspired us all. It was an honor to work with her. --Kenny Perry Associate General Counsel (Fannie Mae)

Gail, I will never forget your fight against NIMBYism at a HUD meeting 10 or so years ago. Your conviction and your eloquence on behalf of those less fortunate has made this country a better place to live. Many thanks. You will be missed.
