Gail was a wonderful Christian example to everyone she met. She had a servant's heart and loved helping others. Gail was a member of Hill Crest Baptist Church where she and her husband, Wayne, have attended for over 20 years. She loved being a part of the Encouragers Sunday School Class where she served as the class Treasurer. Gail was dedicated to caring for her family and was a hard-working woman. She retired from Coca-Cola Bottling Company in Oxford after 28 years and after retirement went back to work for Midtown Outlet until they closed and then went on to work for Trantham Farms. Throughout her working career, Gail specialized in bookkeeping, which she did thoroughly and efficiently. Gail was an amazing cook and when asked what some of her "best dishes" were, her family would tell you that everything she made was the best! She was not only talented in the kitchen, but Gail also had two green-thumbs and loved tending to flowers, especially her Thanksgiving and Christmas cactuses. To know Gail was to love her and she will forever be remembered for her generosity, kind heart, and sincere love she gave to all who knew her.

Flowers will be accepted or donations may be made in Gail's memory to The Leukemia And Lymphoma Society at www.lls.org or to Hill Crest Baptist Church (c/o The Encourager's Sunday School Class), 5117 Post Oak Road, Anniston, AL 36206.
