Gale Renee Walker

SIDNEY – Gale Renee Walker, who resided in Centers Healthcare, Cooperstown, for the past seven years, took the hand of our Lord and ascended into heaven on Jan. 17.

Gale was born and raised in Sidney, the precious daughter of William and Esther Walker. Gale was a big sister to Keith, Kimberly and Thomas and a sister-in-law to their spouses Pam Walker, Larry Crowe and Renee Walker.

She loved all her family dearly, including 12 aunts and uncles, six nieces and nephews, 30 cousins and many precious friends from childhood.

Gale was a member of the First Baptist Church of Sidney all her life. The congregation wrapped their loving arms around her celebrating her joys and supporting her in the trials she faced.

Gale resided in the former Otsego Manor for the past seven years and was cared for by a dedicated and compassionate team of staff.  Gale’s dog and companion Nikki was a comfort to Gale and many residents of the nursing home.

Gale was a graduate of Sidney High School, Class of 1974, and had many fond memories of her school days.

A Remembrance Service will be held in the spring at the First Baptist Church of Sidney. Share condolences online at www.landersfh.com.

Arrangements are under the direction of C.H. Landers Funeral Chapel, Sidney.
