Gail P. Wellington, 85, of Limerick, PA, passed away on May 14, 2025.
Born on January 14, 1940, in Yonkers, New York, Gail was the daughter of the late James Wellington and Ardath (Sweet) Longdon. She was raised in Utica, New York, and lived in various areas throughout New England.
Gail earned her Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Northeastern University. Her career flourished in the technology industry, where she rose to become Vice President at Commodore Computers, serving for many years. As co-owner of Three Peas and A Pod Florists, Gail invested in her daughters dream and talent. After retirement she devoted much time to the community through the chamber of commerce, Art goes to school, Art fusion and various other organizations.
Gail had a lifelong appreciation for the arts. She loved to draw, knit, and garden-finding joy in these creative expressions. Her deep compassion and wisdom led her to become a mentor to many, touching countless lives with her warmth, intelligence, and generous spirit.
A resident of Limerick for the past 30 years, Gail is survived by her two loving children, Chandler Withington Jones III (Lisa) and Heidi Gail (Jones) Swartz (Shawn); her sister, Judith Wellington; and her grandchildren, Nicolas, Samantha, Jesse, Patrick, and Caitlyn.
She was preceded in death by her parents and her brother, John Robert "Jack" Wellington.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, from 4:00–7:00 PM at The Carousel at Pottstown, located at 30 W King Street, Pottstown, PA 19464.

I worked with Gail at Commodore after meeting first at Computervision in the UK. We have remained in contact over the years, despite all of both of our different careers and moves. Many will remember her for her work with Commodore computers, Amiga and software. Many of us in Europe, North America and internationally will remember her as a friend. Our thoughts are with her

I met Gail through teaching her grandchildren art at Brooke Elementary. I also had the pleasure of hosting her for Art Goes to School. She was a wealth of knowledge and so interesting to talk to. My condolences to your family. Susan Witts

Gail was one of the key people who made our amazing Amiga computers come to life. Many of us are still using the systems that Gail and her colleagues developed. It was always awesome to see Gail pop up on interviews and give her take on those magical years at Commodore. Gail lives on in the Amigas us enthusiasts collect and maintain. RIP Gail.

I met Gail through my daughters who worked for Three Peas in a Pod. She was always very nice and always busy doing something. Her contributions were felt by many people and organizations. She has touched many lives, perhaps that is her legacy. R.I.P. Gail, fly with the Angels!

Gail was my closest friend for 53 years. We had so many memories together, both good and bad and I will miss her for the rest of my life. I have always loved being an honorary Wellington!
