My sincerest sympathies to Gale's family and friends. I know he will be greatly missed. Gale and I had spent many a chinese dinner together, viewing pics, sharing stories and enjoying the sunshines of life. Even when my job took me to far places, we were able to share a laugh and smile. I will miss my friend, and will always have a special place in my heart for him.##imported-begin##Maryanne Slaten##imported-end##
I am very sorry to hear of Gale's passing. I spent a lot of time at his barn several years ago. He was a good guy and I know he went through a lot at the end.##imported-begin##Amanda Slaten Frasier##imported-end##
Our deepest sympathy to all family and friends who will miss Gale. Gale made me laugh! He shared his horses and his barn with us, giving me the opportunity to share my love and passion with my daughter. We will always be reminded of Gale, especially when Katie and I are together with our horses. I will miss him deeply.##imported-begin##Suzanne and Rick Franczak##imported-end##
