Not sure what to say?

In early 1975 Gail and I met as we stood at the same place, at the same time, each morning at the Fullerton elevated stop, waiting for a train to take us to work in the Loop. Soon we talked each morning. One day on that platform I resolved to marry Gail if I could. We hadnt yet gone on our first date.

In late 1976 we marriedthe best thing of my life, leading to our three daughters, our 45 years of companionship, and many friends, most of whom were connections that shed made. She...

Dear Ken and Family,

We are so sorry to hear of Gail's passing. She was one of the first people we met in the neighborhood. We loved being a part of the dinner club, where we got to know Gail and Ken better. We enjoyed all the dinner parties when we were in the same group . . . great stories and always laughter! Gail was so good with our daughter, Katie, when she would stop on her bike and ask about Elise! She was a great lady and will be missed.

Love,
Lisa, Barry,...

Dear Steph, Justin and Ellie,
Thinking of you at this difficult time.
From the Jawed-Jains.

To the Davis Family,

We are so sorry for your loss, Gail was so young, and it was all so soon that we know this must be hard to come to terms with. We only met Gail once (we are friends of Justin and Steph), but we know from knowing Steph what a wonderful human being she was. Reading her obituary it becomes clear why Steph is who she is, rest in peace Gail. Lots of love for the family and strength from the Ewers family xxx

I am so sorry for your loss. You guys are in my prayers.

Still hard to believe my sister is gone. The realization comes in waves.With only two years between us we played childhood games together for years and stayed bonded though adulthood. She thought I was special, offering the kind of love one gets from one's mother, kind and generous

Dear Elise and family, my deepest sympathies to you at this most sad time. You are in my thoughts and prayers as you reflect on the life of your precious mother, Gail Davis. Her legacy will live on in you as you do life while she has moved on to her eternal home. May God keep you comforted knowing that she is at peace. With love, Gail Santucci

To the Davis family, we send you our deepest sympathies at this time. We know that Ann, Pete's Mum loved meeting Gail and Kenneth they visited her in Cornwall, England. We also know from Steph what a wonderful, kind and loving mother Gail was. Clearly an amazing lady. Sorry we cannot be there to support and help you, but we will be thinking of you and sending all our love.

To Gail's loving family, our thoughts and prayers are with you as you say farewell to dearly beloved Gail. May you find inner strength in these trying times, and peace in your heart in days to come. May the gentle passing of time be a source of comfort, as you recall beautiful memories of years together.
Sincerely yours,
Kristine, Xuan and Aeryn Mac from London
(Friends of Stephanie, Justin and Ellie)
