Gail Brooks Obituary
TRUMANN - Gail Brooks passed away Monday, April 22, 2024, at St. Bernards Medical Center in Jonesboro. She was born in Poplar Bluff, Mo., and lived most of her life in the Trumann area.
She was employed by Walmart for over 35 years and never had two days off in a row. She was always off on Wednesdays and Sundays so she could attend church because church was a priority to her. Gail was a member of Stone Ridge Church of Christ.
In her younger years, she loved to travel, read, work puzzles and ride roller coasters with her niece.
She was preceded by her parents, Harold and Edith Prichard Allen, one sister Vickie Allen, and one great-nephew, Matthew Avery.
Gail is survived by one sister, Beverly Allen of Jonesboro; one nephew, Steve Poynor; one niece, Darlene (Barry) Avery of Jonesboro; a special cousin, Franklin and Sandy Prichard; and extended family.
The family will receive friends from 1 to 2 p.m. Saturday at Stone Ridge Church of Christ in Jonesboro. A celebration of her life will follow at 2 p.m. with John Mundy officiating. Burial will follow in Nettleton Cemetery.
Pallbearers will be Phillip Cassidy, Matt Cossey, Trey Moody, Taylor Harbin, Kemuel Camp and Matt Sullivan.
Honorary pallbearers will be the staff of St. Bernards Dialysis Center.
