The CBS13 family is very sorry to hear of Gaithel's passing. We and our viewers appreciated his time volunteering with the Call Kurtis unit helping callers with their consumer problems. Our sympathy goes out to his family.

My prayers to all the family. Gaithel and I were the only fathers that wore aprons when our children were in preschool; we were a sight! I had much respect for Gaithel and for the work that he did. Once on Halloween, Gaithel asked if I had seen any kids throwing eggs. When I said no, he pulled out two pockets full of eggs and said he was ready for them this year. I couldn't believe it; it was hilarious! Gaithel was a great guy and always personable. I am saddened at his loss. My prayers to everyone who had the pleasure to know him; I know he will be missed.

May the roads rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rain fall soft upon your fields
And, until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
