Mike I’m so sorry for Gail’s passing. Hope you are doing okay. My fondest memories of Gail (my favourite partner) was whooping the guys butts in Canasta. Not sure if this memory is appropriate for this space but I think Gail would be okay with it. I hope that we can get together sometime and reminisce about the lovely person she was. All my love
