On January 18, 1964 Gail married Phillip Jock at St. Mary's Catholic Church, Fort Covington with Reverend Robillard officiating. Gail became the proud mom of three children which led to her being a stay-at-home mom until the children were old enough to go to school. Gail became the tax collector for the town of Fort Covington while raising her two sons. She held this title for over twenty years. In the early ninety's Gail went to work for the Fort Covington Adult Center, where she ultimately became the director. Gail's main focus in life was to spend as much time with her children and grandchildren, that is why she left the adult center and became the main care of her five grandchildren. Gail enjoyed gardening and her flower beds; she loved to make sure that her family was always fed with her great home-cooked meals as well. She could also be seen playing Bingo with her mom at St. Mary's Catholic Church every week. Gail leaves behind her sons; Loran (Laurie) Jock of Constable and Jason Jock of North Bangor, her grandchildren; Kaylee, Megan, Marissa, Makayla and Cameron along with her great-grandson Lincoln and three on the way.
