Gale loved to cook and bake and had a great collection of recipe books. She loved to share what she made with everyone she knew. One of her great passions in life was shopping, with Avon and The Shopping Channel being among her favourites. Gale also loved to spend time outdoors tending her flower gardens and watching the cardinals and other birds in her yard. Above all, Gale loved her family and her three sons were the joys of her life.
