Byus and Donald L. Byus II; three grandchildren, Sydney McBride, Mary Alex (Robert) McBride Christoffers, and Billy Unger; siblings, Gerald “Toby” Jones, Patsy (Steve) Smock, Betty Jones, and Darlene Jones; many loved nieces and nephews. Gail was preceded in death by her parents; and infant brother, Eddie Jones. In keeping with Gail’s wishes cremation will take place and no formal services will be held.  Memorial contributions may be made in Gail’s memory to Wabash Area Development, Inc.
