I swam with Gail back in the good old days at Wichita Swim Club. She was an inspiration to all of us with her smile and positive attitude. I just yesterday learned of her passing. Now that my daughter is swimming on a year-round team, I find myself remembering those days at WSC more often and Gail is always a part of those memories. God bless all her family and friends. I am truly sorry for your loss.

In high school and on the swim team, Gail was the gold standard of quality in every way. Friendly, beautiful, funny, inspirational, motivational, and always positive, Gail was the woman every boy wanted to date, and every girl wanted to be like. EVERYBODY loved and admired Gail.

Her smile lit up the room, and her laugh added music to our lives. Thank you, Gail, for making our world a better place.

I was one of Gail's swimmers when she coached at the Wichita Swim Club and I was 10 years old- she was my hero! I have many, many fond memories of her.
