Mike and I are so sorry to hear about Gail's passing. We just wanted to let George, Trace and the extended family to know that we are devastated by this news. Gail was such a beautiful person inside and out. I find it very ironic that Gail posted on FB on March 9 that "getting old is a privilege". Sending love to all.
