Gale was loved at Delta Dental and definitely by me. She sat across from me and her laugh was contagious....what a sweet, sweet lady!

To the lady that had the biggest and most loving heart. I was lucky enough to call you my friend!! I will cherish all the times we left Delta to have lunch together (and meeting up with Zack), the times we celebrated each others Birthdays and Christmas together at Delta. For so long we sat across from each other and talked about family and God. The praying you done for my family (while my son was in and out of the hospital)brought us through some dark times. I will a always remember your lovely face and the way you were always there for me ready to pray and just to talk. God blessed me with a loving friend like you. I know you are out of pain and flying high in the heavens as an Angel. You will be dearly missed but not forgotten for sure. I love you Gale!!!! May God bless your family during this time.
