Gail had a sharp mind and a compassionate soul, qualities that made her a strong person who never gave up until the very end.

Whether it was feeding stray cats or loving on her fur babies, Gail’s love for animals knew no bounds. She was a true advocate for their well-being. A graduate of California State University Sacramento, Gail obtained a Masters in Psychology. While her main profession was a homemaker, she always used her knowledge to help her children and grandchildren be successful.
