It is with a very heavy heart that I post the news that Gail passed away peacefully in her sleep surrounded by family and her loyal 4 legged companion Nina. She fought a long hard battle of liver and brain cancer and is now at peace.

Most of you do not know that Gail opened her home to many foster children and adopted them, she still had one young daughter at home who will be cared for with her older siblings. She was an extremely big hearted and wonderful woman.

Rest in Peace Gail. YOu will be greatly missed in life, on GameBoomers and in Joe's Diner. There will always be a seat for you.

Ana
