    What can I say about my Aunt Dee? She bought me my first pair of nylons for Christmas when I was 12 years old. That was a big deal!! I was in Rochester for a month in the summer when I was 17 years old and she took me everywhere. We had a good time together and it always seemed to be full of smiles and laughter. Your family will miss you Aunt Dee. Love, Melissa D. Adams.

    Mom, i miss you so much and will cherish memories that can last a lifetime! It was an honor to be by your bedside, hold your hand and reassure you that it was ok to sleep. I know you could hear me ask you to be my special angel and remove the dark clouds that have surrounded my family and help the sunshine through !! We will once again have our daily conversations that have been neglected over the years… My heart hurts with your passing… Until we see each other again pplease watch over the family..
    Missed and loved dearly,
    Len

    Bob, Rob & Len- My sympathy regarding your loss. Gail and I used to swap murder mystery books and I’m sure she is meeting with authors like Laurence Saunders to write a mystery novel or two. She was always very gracious to me when I was a part of the extended family’.

    Gail, we are so fortunate to have the honor of being friends with you and your family for over 40 years. You, Bob, Alan and myself always had some very memorable fun times together. The memories I will cherish the most will be visiting you at your house,while you so bravely fought your illness, and the hours we spent reminiscing and laughing about our many fun times.Thank you for always being a good friend. We will never forget you, you will always be in our hearts and prayers and greatly missed. I have to mention what a good job your guys (Bob, Len and Rob) did in picking the perfect picture of you for the paper. Yes, I know you agree Gail. Love Alan & Barb

    Bob and Family, I just learned of Gail’s passing and want you to know that my wife and I are sorry for your loss. I went to UMPI back in 2012 to attend our 50th class reunion only to find that you folks weren’t attending, so I didn’t stick around either. Even though I haven’t seen her for over 50 years, I still think of her as a classy person… a class act. With deep sympathy- Phil Sargent, Presque Isle, ME

    I enjoyed working across the hall from Gail. She was a wonderfully dedicated teacher and colleague. Just found out about her passing. 🙁
