As well as many other loved ones. Gailsy Wailsy was an avid bowler for most of her long life. So much so that we wonder if God knows that they will have a fierce opponent at Heavens Thunderstorm Bowling Ally, when we all hear the thunder roll we will picture Gail stepping up to bowl a strike or throwing her hocus pocus whammy directly at her opponent so they throw a gutter ball! Gail cherished the many friendships that were created during the decades spent at the ally. She was game for almost anything her kids suggested. She enjoyed traveling our country whether by buses, ships or planes, trains and automobiles. She had her spunky free spirit right till she made her exit. She was brave, courageous, and a rock for her kids. She instilled all those attributes in them! She was loved by many & will be missed by all. God Speed Gail .. Mom ..Sister ..Aunt ..GMa ..GG ..
