I volunteered with Gail almost 20 years ago and every morning had lots of laughs. She inspired me to pursue a career in Gerontology something I continue to this day. It had been years since I’d seen her but thought of her often. My condolences to the entire family, she spoke highly of you all!

Dear Cross and Fortinsky Family, I was saddened, when Bayla told me that Gail had passed away. I extend my heartfelt sympathies, to you all. I had the pleasure of seeing Gail, over the years, at various of your family functions, but I will remember her most, from Bayla and Gary's year in Israel, when Gail and your Aunt Clara visited, for a few weeks. It was close to 30 years ago, but I still remember how much fun Gail was and what a great time we all had, the different times we got together, during that trip. I wish you solace and strength at this sad and difficult time. Hamakom yenachem etchem betoch sha'ar avelay Tziyon v'Yerushalayim. - Jeanette
