Last time I was with her was back several years we went to Disneyland with her daughter Amber and another cousin, Debbie and had such fun!

I was sorry to hear about Gayle passing. I worked with both her and her daughter Amber at Jcrew. Gayle always had a story to tell. My prayers go out to the family.

My condolences to my cousin Gayle's family. It's been years since I've seen her, but I have wonderful memories mostly of awesome family reunions, picnics and special occasions"out at the farm". She is most definitely in heaven with our precious loved ones who have gone before. Her smile and those incredible dimples will be missed here on earth.
