To Craven and Rivera Family, My prayers and My Condolences To You and Your Family. Rest In Paradise Gale. Love Delores Rucker

Gale was a coworker of mine. Although we worked in different departments, whenever I saw her in the hallway, restroom, breakroom we would always greet each other and have small conversation. She carried this sweet spirit on her and was always very pleasant. It was such a pleasure to be around someone so genuine and carrying. She is definitely an angel that gained her wings. Sending my deepest sympathy and keeping all her family and friends in my thoughts and prayers. Rest peacefully Gale

Gale was a coworker to me, she worked in a totally different city than I and I never got to meet her face to face, but she was the kindest person and I could feel her heart and love for everyone by just speaking to her on the phone. I know I will miss that kindness, in a world where it seems that so many are bitter and unkind, she always offered sincere kindness to everyone. I pray peace to the family and say rest in peace my dear friend and I hope we get to meet face to face one day in heaven.

To Gale's families; the Cravens and the Riveras I give my deepest sympathy. Gale had such a kind and loving spirit and will be missed by many. Find comfort in knowing that her days of pain and suffering is over and she is safely in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. RIH Gale
