Obituary of Gail P. Jennings

Gail Patricia Jennings, longtime Hackettstown resident, died peacefully on Tuesday, June 18, 2019 at Morristown Medical Center. She was 77.

Gail was born in Morristown on March 17, 1942 to the late Martin and Mary Jennings. She was raised in Madison and was a 1960 graduate of Madison High School. Gail enjoyed her daily trips to the Park Avenue Market and visiting the many friends she had in Madison. She moved to Hackettstown 30 years ago and settled at the Washington Township ARC Group Home, where she had many long-lasting friendships with fellow residents and several staff members.

Gail was a naturally kindhearted, warm & caring person. She did not let her disability get in the way of having an active and productive life. She loved shopping, especially for clothing, and going out to dinner to enjoy a meal with family and friends.  Gail also appreciated music and enjoyed listening to the radio often.

Gail is survived by her devoted brother, Robert Jennings and his wife, Ellen of Madison; her beloved niece, Jackie Jennings and her husband, Salvatore Gentile of Brooklyn; several cousins and many dear friends.
