Gail Nadine, 80, of Idaho Falls left her earthly home unexpectedly of natural causes to join her Father God in Heaven on Sunday, March 4, 2018, at Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center.

Born on January 3, 1938, to Viola and Leonard Stenger, Gail was the oldest of five children.  Most of her life was lived in beautiful Northern California before beginning a new chapter in Idaho Falls.

Gail married Dale Ten Broeck in May 1955.  During their 35-year union they were blessed with two daughters, Tara and Arden.

Our beloved Mother, Grandmother, Sister and friend was a phenomenal woman with an innate gift to inspire and lift the spirits of the lives she touched.  She had an unparalleled capacity for love.  Her passions included her relationship with God, spiritual growth, physical well-being, family, dear friends, gardening and oysters.

Gail loved spending time with her daughters and grandchildren.  Her greatest joys were these intimate visits and the adventurous journeys she shared with her daughter Arden.

She was our heart, our soul and our rock. She is desperately missed, but her love lives on in our hearts forever. In a letter to her dear children, Gail said: "My love for my family is infinity. Long ago I began to sign my cards and notes with 'my forever love', hoping you would understand that I would not leave you or forsake you.  Although I am physically gone, be assured that my love will be with you forevermore. That love is now blended with the pure essence of my Father God. I ask that He uplift, protect, console, and make His presence an active part of your lives. Through Him my life has been completed. In Jesus' most precious name I ask it. Amen and amen."

Gail is survived by her daughters, Tara (Larry) Dausin of Blacksburg, Virginia and Arden Adair of Seattle, Washington; three grandchildren: Devin Beyma, and Kyle and Rachelle Dausin; and siblings Donna Willoughby, and Mark and
Gaylan Stenger.

She was preceded in death by her parents and her dear baby brother, Baron Stenger.

A family memorial service will be planned for a later date.
