April 16, 1951 ----- February 24, 2016

Gail Hildegarde (Olson) Myers was born April 16, 1951 in Fort Dodge, Iowa, the daughter of C. Hildegarde and Carl Severin Olson of Thor, Iowa, where the family farmed for many years. Gail completed her elementary education at the Thor school, graduating from Eagle Grove High School in 1969. She completed her bachelor's degree in accounting at Buena Vista College and served as an accountant at AGP Ag Processing Inc., retiring in 2015.

Gail and Rick Moser were united in marriage on February 21, 1969, in Thor, Iowa. The couple had one daughter, Jan, and one son, Shawn. Jan and Todd Derscheid continue to reside in Eagle Grove, Iowa, with their two sons, Macklin and Eliason. Shawn and Jana Moser reside in Palmer, Alaska, with their three sons: Payton, and twins Emerson and Weston.

Gail attended Grace Evangelical Free Church and participated in Bible studies as health permitted. She loved reading and spending time relaxing at the lake. The greatest loves of her life were her children and grandchildren – with Iowa State football games running a close second. Over the years, one could usually find Gail attending school or other events involving her children or grandchildren.

Gail died February 24, 2016. She was preceded in death by her mother and father; a brother, Alan; an infant sister, Nancy; and her older sister, Cathy (Don) Meyer. In addition to her children and their father, and five grandchildren, survivors also include a brother, Tom (Linda) Olson of Marion, Iowa; one brother-in-law, Don (Cathy) Meyer of Peoria, Arizona; two nieces: Christine Southerland of Depew, New York, and Wendy Johnson of Storm Lake, Iowa; two nephews: Rev.
