Mom will also be missed by her extended family, Margo (Robert), Hal, Paul (Angela), Robyn, Christopher (Colette) and their families. Our lives were enriched by the love she had for us all. Our mother Gail loved words and fine things, which enabled her to enjoy her many careers. She worked as a proofreader with the Vanguard and later at W.L. Harding Fine China in Yarmouth. Following her move back to Dartmouth she worked at Birks as a Gemologist and watch repair specialist. Her love of literature enabled her to outwit many crossword puzzles. Travel was a passion with trips to Alaska, Ireland, China, Hawaii, and Florida to name a few. Mom loved her home at 22 Circassion and will miss her friends there. A special thanks to We Care, the Dartmouth General doctors, nurses and staff in the Emergency, ICU and the third floor west who provided compassion and comfort to all of us.
