It has been many years since Gail pasted away. I know at one time she developed crippling arthritis even as young as she was. I am not sure what caused her death.
I have fond memories of her. When my sister and I moved to Texas in the 10th grade she befriended us right off the bat. I can see her in that little Volkswagen. She was a very sweet girl and we spent time at her home. Her parents were very kind to us. I still think about her. RIP, Gail.
I believe Gail was killed in a car accident at 12th and Lamar. I could be wrong, it was not long after graduation and yes, she was in constant pain from the arthritis. I saw her mother years later and we both cried together. She was genuinely nice.
