Since the sad news last Friday I have reflected on the gratitude of having known Gayle. She was my rock and comfort while I was with you in Chesaning and she became a beacon of inspiration in later years when she showed me how to deal with adversity. Love and to you all!

Dear Brother, She was a beacon for all of us. Her never give up attitude will be carried with me for the rest of my days! She is an inspiration for all who knew her. Knowing she is in the arms of our Lord is the greatest comfort for me. Sending hugs to you and your family!

My most sincere sympathy to all.
Gayle was an inspiration to me. I can honestly say I never saw her without a smile and being greeted with a hug and a hardy hello.
Throughout the years I often thought of her and her smile to get me through a rough day.
Growing up in retail myself I knew that it could be difficult to smile at times, but your mothers was always genuine. Something I believe that the people of Chesaning are born with.
My love to you all. Please give your dad a big hug from me, he also is an inspiration!!
