Steve, Virginia and families
It is with deep sadness we think of the passing of a dear friend Gayle. She was kind, compassionate and a good listener. We have enjoyed many conversations over the years. Gayle loved to read and watch movies and could speak of the authors or actors many years later. Cherish your memories of a life well lived by a caring Mom, grandmother and great-grandmother. Rest in peace Gayle. We will miss you.
