If you knew Gayla, you knew how quick she could light up a room with her personality. She loved to make the holidays so special for everyone. Whether it was making her own ornaments, a new recipe, or just helping with anything she could. I will try my best to keep her holiday spirit every year! I definitely wont be able to compare to all that she did thats for sure! I wish she knew the impact she left in our hearts. I will always have a seat next to me at the table just for you Grand G. We love you
