Gail Ann Kirkland

1940-2022

Gail passed away at Nanaimo Hospital on Sept. 11, 2022 after suffering a stroke. She is survived by brothers Archie and Mike Wayman, as well as her son Darren and daughters Jacquline and Teresa. Gail operated her hair studio for many years here on Gabriola before retiring a few years ago and will be missed by her many friends and customers. She had a small list of wishes and one that shows her sense of humour is this statement she wanted everyone to hear “You know I could be run over by a bus and die and everybody would say ‘Well she was a smoker you know.’”

Another item on her list was her request that there be no memorial or celebration of life but that should not stop friends and family at a future date (TBA) getting together and telling stories and to have a wee toast.

In keeping with her community spirit in lieu of flowers a small donation to a local charity of your choice would be appreciated.
