I’m sorry I can’t attend this event where your amazing legacy as founder and leader of the Caregiving Alliance will be appropriately celebrated. I am honored to know you even a little and look forward to future conversations about your “next chapter.”
Gail, you have contributed so much wisdom and insight into our understanding of the important role of caregivers in our society. I appreciate the focus, empathy and support that you’ve given to caregivers. Your work has encouraged others to continue to do additional research leading to important articles and books on the subject. My work has personally been influenced by you to interview and pass on the wise words and deep learning that caregivers have to offer. Congratulations on your well-deserved recognition.
Gail, I wish I could attend this celebration and be among the throng to THANK YOU for all your pioneering work over the decades to shape the face of caregiving today. I recall that first day we met in DC many decades ago and you’ve spearheaded a movement that thrives because of your energy, intellect and dedication. I leave today for Israel returning mid March; however, I’ll certainly be thinking of you and wishing you well. I hope to see you in June and hear highlights of this wonderful event. Know that if it were possible I’d be there for sure. CONGRATULATIONS!
Congratulations Gail! Thank you for your many years of service to Caregiving. The best of luck and health.
Gail, your work crystallized our understanding of the critical importance of family caregivers. Thank you for your tremendous leadership over the years.
Dear Gail, Imagine, it’s been over twenty years that NAC took the lead on research that called attention to working caregivers and the impact on employers. Happily for me, our partnership also helped to put the MetLife Mature Market Institute on the map and was the beginning of our professional and personal friendship. Gail, you have built an amazing organization, something to be proud of. And I’m happy that you will continue to speak out and to serve on boards. So much has been accomplished through NAC but there is still more to do—and caregivers need your passion, your intelligence and your commitment to continue to light fires and carry the torch. I send my good wishes to you for a future of new accomplishments, adventures….and more time to have some fun!
Warm Regards, Sandy
