As I stood tearfully at Gail's bedside a few days before she passed she looked up and reassuringly said, "I've lived a wonderful life." For all who knew Gail, rather than mourn her too soon parting, celebrate her wonderful life lived with passion, purpose, intelligence, and commitment; inspired and esteemed by an extensive network of loving friends and colleagues. Join us on the 25th in celebration of an excellent life lived to the fullest without regret.

I met Gail at UCLA. We went through the credential program. Gail was a beautiful person soul. She always made a person feel happy and appreciated. My deepest sympathy goes to her family. I will miss her but forever keep her goodness in my thoughts and heart.
