My husband and I were Frank and Mona Gayle's neighbors in Oolitic for several years. We moved in as a very young couple. They were so welcoming and meant so much to us. We spent a lot of time talking to them in the yard and on the porch. We have wonderful memories of them and miss their smiles and waves when we pull in the drive way. Mona Gayle especially always watched out for us and our girls. A couple of my favorite memories are...
My husband was working in our front flower bed on a hot July day. He came back in the house just a short time after he went out. When I asked him why he was back inside he let me know that Mona Gayle had come over and said it was just too hot for him to be working outside. She told him it was supposed to be less humid tomorrow and he should finish the job then, so the job was finished the next day as she suggested!
We thought a fence was much needed for our backyard to keep the girls safe while playing. Mona Gayle thought it was a good idea too when we explained to her that there was going to be construction and what we were doing. She became very interested in the project and wanted to make sure the fence was being installed correctly, so she watched the workers install the fence out one of her bedroom windows to make sure it was going well. The next time I saw her on the porch she told me she had to quit watching when they made it to the far side of the yard because she had set off her Life Alert necklace on the window frame moving to see! :) She would smile and wave at us from the window when the girls were out jumping on the trampoline or playing on the swing set.
We will be praying for you all during this difficult time!
