    She loved her cats, in Facebook postings she shared her love of them with other Burmese-cat admirers, she endeared herself deeply to even those, like me, who knew her only through her posts, and who nonetheless will greatly miss her and think — oh, gone too soon, gone far too soon — how much those nearer to her will lament her death, sorrow for her absence ! But G-d has taken her, and H-s ways are not ours.

    So very sorry to hear this. I’m an old friend from UMASS with very fond memories of Gail. Her smile and laugh were infectious! May she Rest In Peace.

    I got to know Gail while working in the cruise ships many years ago. She was great at her job and loved it. Always kind to her passengers. We stayed FB friends throughout the years and always enjoyed the FB photos of Midori and Blueberry. It’s been a shock to me and realize how short of time we have. My condolences and my prayers go to her family.

    Gail was awesome. I met her while working @ WIS. She was so kind and didn’t take crap from anyone. I had recently got in touch with her, to let her know I had cancer. She wouldn’t allow me to visit. I am truly heartbroken. RIP GAIL!

    Gail and I became Pen Pals three years ago after discovering each other on Ancestry.
    We kept in touch at least once a month ever since. It was Heartbreaking to discover
    about her passing. I will miss her very much. RIP Cuz.

    I worked with Gail at WIS, and she was such a kind soul. We kept in touch for years afer I left WIS, but I hadn’t heard from her in a few years, only to find out she passed. May her soul rest in peace
