So sorry to hear about Gayle. I knew her as a teenager when I worked for her parents. Often wondered how she was doing. She will be missed by family and friends.
Brad, I’m so sorry for the loss of your mother. Time will heal your broken heart. Just try and remember all the good memories and keep her in your heart. She is at peace now and in the hands of God. My thoughts are with you and your family.
I am sorry to hear of Gayle’s passing. We were friends through our teen years & I enjoyed riding her horse on the An Urban ( sp?) and listening to music with our friends. Bon Voyage Gayle.
So very sorry to hear of Gayle’s passing. We were friends and school buddies from way back. Rest In Peace dear Gayle.
My heart is broken alongside you all. Gayle was a very special lady, and I loved her dearly. I know she is much happier now than she ever was here on Earth, but it doesn’t make the hurt less. She was a strong woman and a survivor. Rest easy, Gayle <3 I’ll see you when I get there!
My heart and prayers go out to you in the passing of your dear mother, grandmother,aunt,and friend. I knew her as a child,teen and adult. She was always friendly and caring to everyone. Eternal rest Gayle.
We were so sad to hear of your Mom’s passing. We’re sorry we can’t be with you on Saturday due to an out of town commitment but will be thinking of you and remembering a favorite cousin.
My heart is saddened to see that Gayle passed on. I have only known Gayle a few months as I was her Shipt shopper delivery girl for her groceries. In my time of meeting her, I was able to learn that she was such an amazing woman, kindhearted, inspiring and content to share her dog with me on my visits. We would have conversations about Jesus and her family and I can say that she LOVED both very much! My prayers are with her family & friends and I am just thankful that I had the opportunity to meet her and get to know her. ~Gretchen Kershaw
