She had a long and fulfilling career in healthcare, working at St. Luke's Hospital in Middleboro for five years, and then the Sippican HealthCare Center in Marion until she retired at age 79.

Gail also had the pleasure of traveling alongside friends and family to destinations like Aruba, Italy, Ireland, Alaska, and Iceland over the years.
