Steve, Ellyn and Jennifer,
Heaven has welcomed another angel. Gail’s wonderful smile, enduring faith and love for all, especially children, will always be remembered. Be comforted by the knowledge that she is now safe at home.
Love and prayers, Bob, Linda and Bethany Rice
We were sorry to hear of Mrs. Plant’s passing. She was and will always be a great part in our sons lives. As anxious, scared yet excited 5 year olds entering Kindergarten both our boys experienced the gentle loving calming influence of Mrs. Plant and her personal relationship with the Lord. She was instrumental in Russ accepting Jesus Christ as his Savior and we were so honored and proud she attended his Baptism at age 7. Teaching Lance to read, she opened God’s word to a 5 year old who then read his own Bible stories, was saved and began his personal journey with our Savior. Patty and I know of no more fitting tribute than to say she helped lead both our sons to eternal salvation. A humble yet magnificient Christian is now with our Heavenly Father. Take comfort dear family in knowing you shall see her again and in the many children she assisted by example in beginning their walk with God. Mrs. Plant will be missed and lovingly remembered by our family forever.
Mr Steve Plant & Family many blessing go out to you and the girls and grandchildren I remember Gail from Headstart I am still with the program, but I know she was a great person, wonderful wife and mother. I had not seen you all in a long time . But how can I forget such great people. I know you will miss her alot, and I can only imagine how you feel, But stay strong in the lord and know that Gail is in good hands.
Love,
A friend at Headstart
Steve, Lynn and Jennifer, What an incredible women Gail was to me. She truly lived her life for the Lord. I thank God that she was instumental in introducing Matthew to MCA. I will cherish the memory of her beautiful smile. Even through her times of illness Gail maintain her witness for Christ. What an example of looking to the Lord Jesus Christ in all things. I love you and am praying for all of you during this time of loss. Anita
