Always smiling and caring, Gail filled the lives of those around her with love and positivity. Her boundless enthusiasm and zest for life touched so many lives.  She enjoyed helping others, decorating, cooking, shopping, traveling, theater, and experiencing new activities and adventures. She will be truly missed by all who loved her.

She is survived by; a son, John Davis of Ochlocknee, GA, a special niece, Madison Washington, and special nephew, Carson Washington, her aunt, Martha Fae Ackerman, and numerous cousins.

Her heart of this world may have failed but her spirit was stubbornly strong:

When peace, like a river attendeth my way

When sorrow like sea billows roll;

Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,

It is well, it is well, with my soul.
