Not sure what to say?

Dear Dorothy and family,
My sincerest sympathy on your loss.
I know how much you cherished Gail. All of the great things you told me about her.
Again my sincerest sympathy

I was saddened to hear of Gail's passing. I worked with Gail at UCSC and remember her visiting my office with a smile on her face and in her voice. I also admired her strength, laughter, and optimistic approach to anything that came her way. My sincerest condolences to Gail's family. Jane

My condolences to Gail's family. I worked with Gail during her years at WJ. I am so sorry for your loss.

I was deeply saddened by Gail’s demise. As manager of the BWO department at WJ in the ‘80s, I hired Gail as my secretary. I remember her as very energetic and full of life with such a pleasant smile. Her drive, talent, and enthusiasm carried her beyond her assigned duties that when I transferred out of the department, I strongly recommended her to take my place, which she did. However, I was mostly impressed at her dedication to taking care of her daughter, Amy. She was not just a working...

Thinking of you at this time of sorrow. My heart goes out to the family. I used to work in the department next to Gail for many years at WJ. I will miss her smile. Gail always reminded me of sunshine and what a nice way for me to remember her.

My most sincere condolences to the family. I knew Gail back in the 80s at WJ and feel fortunate to have known her. May her memory live in our hearts forever.

My heart goes out to the family.
I worked with Gail at WJ back in the 80's. Although we didn't work in the same department, I remember what a vibrant and well liked person she was. I am so sorry for your loss.

I worked at Watkins-Johnson company during the 80's and 90's. I did not know Gail very well. However, one thing I do remember vividly is that she always was smiling and happy. Our life at WJ was made better and more tolerable because of her. We need more people like her in this world.

I am saddened to learn of Gail's passing. I worked with Gail at UCSC for 3 years, and I've missed her jubilant laugh since she left. I've also missed seeing her pull up in the mornings in her shiny red sports car. She was almost as proud of that car as she was of her family. Almost, but not quite. I will remember Gail's ready laughter and honest smile and gentle exasperation for incompetence. My heart goes out to her family as they cope with her loss.
