I worked with Gail in West Irondequoit School District. She was secretary at Seneca and I was secretary at Briarwood. We shared the principal and support staff. When I had to learn the computer, I thought I was going to have to quit my job. Gail was so helpful and kind whenever I asked her for help with the computer.
My family and I were parishioners at St. Thomas church and sat behind a darling, younger couple. It was fun watching this little family grow. They added a dear little boy and then a sweet little girl. I realized years later, this was Gail and Bob and family.
Gail and I had lunch together last summer. She is on my list to call and catch up with this summer. I was shocked to hear in church today that Gail has passed away. I know she and Bob are together again in heaven. RIP dear friend!
