Gail Austin Adams' Obituary
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Gail Austin Adams, a beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, who left this world peacefully on April 18, 2025 at the age of 77. Born on November 29, 1947, Gail lived a life of love and devotion to her family. She is survived by her daughter, Melissa Brannon (Lonnie) and her son, Bill Sands (Dana) and her five treasured grandchildren: Amanda (Les), Alex (Jake), RJ (Lexi), Devin, and Jesse (Matt) as well as her brother, Bill Austin (Laureen) and sister Cindi Moye (Tim). Her legacy continues in the laughter and joy of her seven great-grandchildren, who brought her endless pride and happiness. Gail had a heart as sweet as the homemade jams she lovingly made each spring and the rich, chocolate fudge she shared around the holidays. Her kitchen was often filled with the comforting scents of her creations. But more than anything, Gail found joy in the simple and sacred moments spent with her family—sharing stories, making memories, and offering unconditional love. Gail was known for her witty and sassy personality, and to know her was to love her.
Though she is no longer with us, her spirit lives on in the hearts of all who loved her. We will carry her memory with us always!!
