Gail Rose Edwards began her adventure in this world on April 3, 1963, in Salida. She grew up surrounded by her three sisters, Sandi, Debbe, and Sabrina, and filled her younger years with laughter, friendship, and memories that would last a lifetime. Gail loved cruising F Street with her friends and driving to Cañon City to sit on classic cars, always bringing fun and joy wherever she went.

Gail was truly the life of the party. She had a way of making people laugh, lifting spirits, and making everyone feel cared for. Even when she did not have much to give, she made sure the people around her were taken care of. Her love was steady, generous, and unforgettable.

Gail is survived by her four children: Michael and Erica, and grandchildren Aiden and Lydia; Heather and Corey, and granddaughter Athena; Tony and Sara, and grandchildren Joe, Max, Sunnie, and Miller; and Geoffrey. She loved her children deeply, but being a grandma brought her a special kind of joy. She was always FaceTiming her grandkids or proudly showing everyone their pictures.

She is also survived by her sisters, Debbe and Sabrina, who shared many treasured memories with Gail, including trips to Las Vegas and time spent together. Gail was loved by many nieces and nephews, including Ashley; Amber and Maverick; Chase, Brooke, Aria, CJ, and baby Oliver; Misty, Rhylea, and Eric; and Chato, Crystal, Caylee, Kendyl, Jake, Linsey, Willow, and Briar.  

When Gail was not with family, she was with her work friends, whom she loved like family. Her warmth, humor, and caring heart touched so many lives, and she leaves behind countless memories filled with laughter and love.

Gail began her new adventure on June 9, 2026. She was greeted in heaven by her parents, Josephine and Frank; her sister, Sandi; brother Mikey, and her Grandma Mary. Gail will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who were blessed to know and love her.
