Hi, this message is for Gail's family. My name is Hassan and I was a colleague of her's at Harper College. I lost contact with her a few years back and since then I tried every year to find her on the internet. She and I shared Jan. 23 as our birthday and just like every year I thought of searching for her again and I came across this obituary. If someone from her family can contact me, I'd love to hear from them. My cell is 780-237-1485 and email is [email protected]

Gail was a secretary in the CAD-Cam Center on the second floor of H Building when it was in the TMPS Division at Harper. Her work was with non-traditional students and funded training programs tending to many requirements not familiar in the rest of the College operations. She was a valuable colleague there and a pleasant person to know and work with.

I was a close friend of Gail's in high school and corresponded with her again briefly after she lost her son. Gail's great gift was her formidable personal honesty and integrity. I am greatly saddened by her loss but comforted to hear of her passions, grandchildren and final, fitting act of generosity to the Wash U Medical School. Well done, Gail.

Gail was a bright star at Harper. Our thoughts are with her family and friends. Kathy Schmitz

My condolences to the family. I worked with Gail and Harper College for more than 13 years. She was extremely generous person and truly one of the funniest people I´ve ever met. I will certainly miss her jokes and texting with her quite often. May she rest in peace.
