Gail VanOsdell Obituary
Born: March 8, 1944 in Oak Park, IL
Died: June 2, 2024 in Kokomo, IN
Gail Leslie Van Osdell, 80, of Kokomo, passed away peacefully on June 2, 2024, at her home. She was born in Oak Park, IL, on March 8, 1944, the daughter of Carl and Gladys Grahl. On February 14, 1968, she married John Van Osdell, and he survives.
A true artist at heart, Gail found joy in crafts, cross stitching, creating beautiful pieces that will be cherished by those who were fortunate to receive them. Throughout her life, Gail rarely missed an opportunity to send a card to a loved one to make them feel special on every holiday. She loved chatting with friends near and far that her and John had made throughout their many moves all over the country. Through the years she always had a soft spot for many different animals and pets; dogs, cats, horses, she loved them all.
Gail is survived by her loving and devoted husband, John; her son, Matt (Diana) Van Osdell; grandchildren, Zachary, Michael, and Maggie; and numerous friends who have become family over the years.
Friends are invited to visit with the family from 12 pm to 2 pm on Saturday, June 8, 2024, at Hasler & Stout Funeral Home, 112 E. Main St, Greentown, IN. Burial will follow at Greenlawn Cemetery. Please join the family at John's house, 297 S 400 E, Kokomo, immediately following the graveside service for a social gathering to tell stories and laugh.
