So sorry for your loss. Gail and I go back to Jr. High. However we did not attend the same school, we met thru my neighbor whom I believe was a cousin.
Gail and I would go horse back riding or play with her Boston Bull dog.
I have only good times to remember with Gail.

When Gail and Jim made their last tour out West, they passed through a Sioux Reservation where the poverty touched her deeply. They sought out a family to provide food support for them. Her heart was large and beat passionately, and left many beautiful memories.

I am sorry for your loss. May prayer comfort you.

1 Thessalonians 5:17 "Pray constantly."

Jamie & family,
We are so sorry for your loss. As you will discover, she will always live on in your hearts.
Consider yourselves hugged,
Bobbie & Joe

You are in my in my thoughts and prayers Alexander family. I wish I could have met Gail. She sounds great! I'm blessed to know her daughter Jamie though. Peace be with you through the grieving process.

Dear Jim, What a nice tribute to Gail. I am sorry for you and your family's loss. She was quite the exceptional person. All my best, Ron

The first time I met Gail was at one of Tai's baseball games. It also happened to be Renee's Birthday. So that her daughter's day would not be overshadowed by the game, Gail brought every type of Renee's favorite foods. It was funny, it was fun, and I remember thinking Gail is the coolest mom ever! A little bit of color has left this world, Gail took it with her. Colorful people do that when they leave. My heart breaks for the Alexander family, but I know that Gail's humor and strength lives...

So sorry for your loss. I will always remember her spirit, her tenacity and her wonderful and mutual liberal nature...we found a commonality in each other that I am grateful for. Will miss you Gail, til we see each other again. Love to all of you....never forget she is always right over your shoulder.
