Louise and I are deeply saddened by the news of Gayle’s sudden passing. Our sorrow is magnified because Gayle was so young. Much remained to be accomplished in her active life.
I was privileged to be part of the Wolf II racing crew for seventeen years. Wolf II and Maxwell House shared the same summer residence in adjacent berths on RKYC’s A Dock. Dave and Gayle, along with the Wolf II crew became wonderful neighbours. Dave and Gayle continuously demonstrated the skills of accomplished boat handlers. It has been a privilege to watch how effortlessly they worked together on their boat.
Gayle was kind and generous and she exuded a warmth of personality that made sharing time together a delight. She was both personally and professionally best defined as a woman of integrity.
I have many special memories of the years that I have known Gayle. One evening, many years ago, Dave, Gayle and I were part of Members’ Day Sail Past. Just the three of us shared a wonderful evening together. As always, Gayle exhibited a generous hospitality as she and Dave managed the operation of Maxwell House.
Louise and I extend our heartfelt condolences to Dave and all the members of Gayle’s extended family.

The shock of Gayle’s passing is enormous. Remembering our boating excursions, stopping for a hike, the shared meals, the shared recipes, dog sitting each other’s ‘puppies’ and some snowmobiling as well! Gayle, with her adventurist nature was game for anything. She was loyal and kind to the core to all of her friends, loved playing the hostess and did it so well. She loved her full life with Dave and our hearts go out to him as he navigates a life without his partner, friend and wife. We will pray for you Dave and send our deepest condolences to her Mom, the children, sisters, and extended family members. To her Real Estate colleagues, remember the lessons learned working at Gayle’s side.

For us Gayle's memory at the SJPBC will always be present. It will never go away.
