To Gayle, the statue of Mother Mary you entrusted me with has been watching over your home since you left and will continue to for as long as I am here. God bless you.
I worked with Gail at School 22. We at that time were bosom buddies. We were paraprofessionals and enjoyed the times spent with Gail. She was a caring and loving person. Children would call her grandma. She loved everyone of them and they loved her. I hope that some who remembered her paid her a visit. Gail was always doing something for the children and sometimes on a personal basis. She would bring her own ideas to school and was a success in doing so. I will never forget you Gail, you were a beautiful person inside and out. When I see and hear a music box , you always come to mind and remember the good times we had. Beautiful memories with you.
Gail and I worked together at school 22, we had many laughs and enjoyed the times we spent together. She was a loving and caring person. She loved the children in her classrooms. She never had a cross word.They loved her. They called her grandma. She was a joy to have known her and I am glad she was in my life.
