Born in Dexter, Maine on August 8, 1952, she was the daughter of Lionel Ambrose Bailey and Winifred Farnham Bailey. Gail graduated from Foxcroft Academy in 1970 and went on to study nursing at Beal College. Shortly after, she began working at Guilford Industries. During her 30 years there, she made many lasting friendships and is where she met her husband of 35 years, Kenneth Larry. Later, Gail returned to Beal College to pursue her education in medical assistance and worked at Hibbard Nursing home until her retirement. Gail enjoyed spending time outdoors, camping and kayaking in the warmer months. Always sewing, knitting, and crocheting, she was happy to give her crafts to her family and friends.
