Not sure what to say?

Dear Leo, I just learned of Gail´s death. I left East Spoke in 1977, yet I remember her fondly for her warmth and skill set.

Dear Leo, and family, I am so sorry for the loss of Gail the gem. She was the greatest in her field, I will always be grateful for the time and insight she gave me. With respect and deep sadness, Sandra Dion.

Dear Leo, so very sorry to hear of Gail´s death! We were colleagues for ever... her one year sabbatical from East Spoke gave me my first temporary position there in 1971! And the rest is history we worked together and then apart but always good friends and colleagues. Gail was a fantastic nurse and human being I will miss her! Karen Coccoluto

I always enjoyed seeing Gail and Leo walking around the neighborhood. I know she will be missed by her family and friends. My sincere condolences to all.

Leo, We were so sorry to hear of Gail´s passing. Our Thoughts and Prayers are with you and your family. Our deepest sympathy! Cheryl and Alan Mallas

When I met Gail her presence was contagious, and Jo and l knew there was a sharing, with her and her people. We still share so much with watching our families grow, an entire array of memories, and continuance. She'd envelop the room with such an openness, and you could feel the love from her caring, loving positioning, laughingly bumbing into any conversation, alert, estute, and quick, ready on her best. Gail, I know every person who reads all of these rememberences, can get a vision...

Gail was very helpful to me and my clients with dementia. Her expert advice, compassion and ability to help were unparalleled. Iwas forever asking, " is Gail here today?". Geoff has known Gail, Leo and kids for decades. She's irreplaceable in so many ways and was great fun to sit with at weddings!! Geoff and I send our deep consolation on the family's loss of " the amazing Gail Ojala".
