Gail was a kind and generous person. When I lived in the Kansas City are I went to his train meet in fall at his farm in Pleasant Hill more than once. One time I needed steam oil for my live steam G scale steamer. I asked if I could buy some from him. He gave me a quart (a lifetime supply for my little steamer) and wouldn't take any money for it. I enjoyed meeting him and seeing all the 1 to 12 modelers show up from all over the country at his place in the fall. He will be greatly missed.
