One of her greatest joys was spending time with her two grandchildren, Riley and Madilynne. She was very compassionate and proud of her family. Gayle had an amazing sense of humor and was known for her straight forward attitude and always wearing her heart on her sleeve. Gayle had many hobbies and interests including sewing, photography, gardening, traveling, camping, shopping, and walking. She had a very creative mind and could make immaculate quilts and the most adorable Halloween costumes for her children. Her family members will never forget the many cherished gifts she made.

One of her favorite things to do was to garden and tend to the amazing oasis of a backyard that she and Rick built together over the last 29 years.
