    Gail has been married for 37 years and has two grown sons.  Her favorite past-times include, horseback riding, reading, and gardening.  She is also trying to work on her computer skills (with much frustration).  Gail elected to become a counselor, because she enjoys helping people with their many issues and finds the work to be challenging.
