Gail Schroeder, daughter of Mildred (Titus) Coglizer Denny and Dietz Coglizer, was born March 25, 1943, in Omaha, Nebraska.
Gail attended Central Park Elementary and North High Schools, graduating in 1961. She was very active in high school and served on her class reunion committee for many years, maintaining life long friendships with her childhood friends. While working at the phone company after graduation she met Merrill (Mike) Schroeder and they were wed in Omaha, July 13, 1963.
Gail was actively involved in her church throughout her life and sang in the church choirs at both Central Park UCC and Maplewood UMC. She was an avid bowler, at one point a member of the 600 club. Mike and Gail had two daughters, Lisa and Laura. As her girls grew Gail was a volunteer for many of their numerous activities and also babysat in her home. In the mid 1980's she started working at CSO insurance as a Medicare claims analyst and processor. She retired in 2005 at the age of 62. She was then even more involved in Maplewood UMC including roles as prayer chain leader and in women's ministries.
Gail was preceded in death by her by her parents, her beloved husband Mike in 2017, her brother Gary Coglizer, her sister Naomi Hawkins and her brother-in-law Ralph Hawkins. Gail is survived by her children Lisa Stanford, of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, and her husband Jim, Laura Meyers, of Omaha, Nebraska, and her husband Jeff as well as her grandsons Jackson and Mason Stanford and Ian Meyers, her sister-in-law Carrie Jean Edwards and 19 nieces and nephews.
