Gail Patricia VanNuck, 89, of Houghton Lake, MI passed away peacefully on March 12, 2025 in Grayling at Crawford Continuing Care center.
Gail was born in Detroit on October 23, 1935 to David and Gloria (Keppen) Mathews. She moved to Roscommon as a child, graduated from RHS in 1954, and lived in the area for the next 70 years.
Gail retired from Glen's Market in 1998 and spent much time traveling, reading, and knitting. She could knit a mean blanket and play an even meaner game of Scrabble. As a die-hard Lions fan, she frequently joked that she'd die only after they won the Superbowl but she understood no one lives forever.
She is survived by children Cindy Galliher, Karen (David) Anscomb, Gregg (Amy) Gardner, Stan Gardner, Steve Gardner, grandchildren Summer Wallington, Kari Valentine, John Valentine, Alisa Anscomb, Michael (Melissa) Anscomb, Patricia (Brandon) Brauer, Miranda Gardner, Emily Gardner, and 13 great grandchildren. Gail is also survived by her sister Kelly Scott. Preceding her in death are son-in-law Greg Galliher and great granddaughter Angalise Moreno.
Cremation has been accorded.
Arrangements handled by Sorenson-Lockwood Funeral Home.
