I was saddened upon finding out that Gayla and her beloved son, Blake had passed away. Both of them were so instrumental in my development during the years I attended Tarkio College 1969-74. Death can never take a good person away, for, in the hearts of the people they inspired, the legacy remains and continuous throughout generations. They were great people to many and may their souls find eternal rest.
