Not sure what to say?

I remember Gail when she was first hired as a social worker at Easter Seals. She was hard working, loved the people and great to work with. I'm sorry to see she passed away so young, my heart goes out to Tom and family.

I am very sorry for your loss and that I was out of town and missed her funeral. She was a very sweet lady, friend and co-worker.

Our deepest sympathy to Tom, Laura & Jonathan. We met Gail and her family through my sister, Gayle, wife of brother, Jim Christ. She was a most pleasant person to be around. May God's Grace comfort you during this most difficult time.

She was an amazing person to work with. I NEVER saw her without a smile. She will be greatly missed here at work. My thoughts and Prayers are with the family. That God may comfort you in this time of need.

Tom, Jonathan and Laura
My heart goes out to you all and you know that Gail's life was well lived serving both you, her family, and everyone she helped in her incredible journey. She is sorely missed by all her knew her. God bless you during this time. Praying for you all.
