Gene & Terri,

I did not hear about Gayle's death until today. I am so sorry about your loss. Gayle was indeed a wonderful person. She was our son Hank's first teacher. He will always remember her as his K4 teacher who taught him to read and instilled in him a love for school and for reading. He is 32 now and he still speaks highly of Mrs. Vaughan. I don't think I ever saw Gayle when she did not have a smile on her face.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Gene & Terri,
You both will be in our prayers. I count Gayle as one of my closest friends over the years. What a great lady she was and many are in Heaven or will be in Heaven because of her love for the Lord and His work. Gene, since we have been married about the same amount of years, I can imagine how much you wil miss her and we will be praying God will comfort you during this time and also Terri, I know you and mom were close. I sent you an e-mail this morning, but had wrong address and I sent it to your mom's address. I am sorry for your loss, but know Gayle is happy to see her son and her Lord.
Love,
Bob & Nancy Heath
