She attended Walter G O' Connell Copiague High School. After moving back to Alabama, she then joined Welcome Chapel Christian Methodist Episcopal Church in Hobson City, AL. Deciding she wanted to venture out, she would eventually settle in Milwaukee, WI where she became a member of Abundant Faith Church of Integrity. Gail was always a calming inspiration. She never let anyone, or anything break her soul. She never let the woes of life bring her down. She was a lover of life. She loved spending time with her grandchildren, her mother, and her children. She was a beacon of light to all those she crossed paths within this world. She was one to devote her life to friends and family making sure everyone around was filled with all the love and laughter she had to offer. She lived big, laughed more, and loved harder than most people. She could find a way to make anyone she met her newfound friend. She spent 18 years of her career taking care of others at Newcastle Place where her kindness and smile would brighten the darkest corridor. She enjoyed spending time with her coworkers as well as the residents making them laugh and lifting the downest of spirits.

She was welcomed into the gates of heaven by her fathers: Frank Goodman and Ralph Graves, her grandmothers: Anna Roland and Betty Goodman, her grandfathers: Rev. Jasper Goodman, Archie Westbrook, and James Roland, and her granddaughter: A'Day Pyles.
