Gaye Nell gave her life to the Lord at about the age of twelve and served God her entire life. Her life was centered around church as she was a longtime member of Bethel Temple A/G. She was a musician, playing piano and accordion, but her most enjoyment was singing in the choir for many years until she could no longer climb the risers. She enjoyed the Seniors Fellowship and took many trips to Branson and other places with them. One of her gifts was baking as many enjoyed her strawberry cake, banana pudding and pumpkin cake.
Gaye Nell worked at Southwestern Bell for 30 years and retired from there in the late eighties.
Gaye Nell had her children in church from birth and because of her faithfulness and prayers, her entire family knows the Lord as their Savior.
