With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Gail Seitz on November 16, 2025, at the age of 79. Born on December 14, 1945, Gail was a beloved daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, sister, sister-in-law, and friend whose warmth and kindness touched the lives of many.
Gail is survived by her devoted daughter Michele Greenwood and her husband Mike, and her son Brian Seitz. She cherished her two grandchildren, Blake and Ashley Greenwood, who brought endless joy to her life. Gail’s brother, Terry Sullivan, and his wife Theresa, also mourn her loss, as do countless friends and family members who were fortunate to know her.
Gail was preceded in death by her dear parents, Michael Joseph and Geraldine Sullivan, and her beloved husband, William Seitz, who was her partner in both life and love. Together, they created a nurturing family environment filled with laughter and love.
Gail cherished spending time with her grandchildren. She had a passion for family dinners, getting a bite to eat with her family and friends, long conversations on the phone with loved ones, and could often be found enjoying the thrill of the casino. A lover of animals, reading, and shopping, Gail embraced life with joy and enthusiasm.
In this time of sorrow, let us remember Gail for her loving spirit and radiant smile, and carry her memory forward through our shared moments and acts of kindness.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to St Jude Children's Research Hospital, a cause that Gail held dear to her heart.
Visitation for Gail will be held Saturday November 22 at Lee-Ellena Funeral Home from 8:30AM to 12:30PM with Funeral service at 1:00PM at Resurrection Cemetery.
