Gail Lynn Horak, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully at her home in Palermo, Maine, on May 16, 2023. She was 66 years old.

Gail was born in Augusta, Maine, on July 4, 1956, to John and Mary Smith. She grew up in a loving home with her two siblings, and attended local schools. After graduating from high school, Gail went on to pursue a career in nursing. She worked as a registered nurse for over 30 years, providing compassionate care to countless patients.

In 1978, Gail married the love of her life, Robert Horak. They settled down in Palermo, where they raised their two children, Sarah and Matthew. Gail was a devoted wife and mother, and she always put her family first. She enjoyed spending time with her children and grandchildren, and she was always there for them with love and support.

Gail was also an active member of her community. She volunteered at the local soup kitchen and food pantry, and she was always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. She was a kind and generous woman who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Gail is survived by her loving husband, Robert; her children, Sarah Horak (John), and Matthew Horak (Emily); her grandchildren, Ethan, Olivia, and William; and her siblings, John Smith (Karen) and Mary Jones (Tom).

A celebration of Gail’s life will be held on Thursday, June 29th, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the Palermo Consolidated School. All are welcome to attend and celebrate the life of this wonderful woman.
