Feel free to message me with any questions. To make changes to a memorial, please use the "Suggest Edits" button found toward the top of the memorial. I will gladly add bio info copied from obituaries as it's public information. I am open to transferring memorials. I am not a "memorial collector". I understand you may not like the obits I post that has the highlighting on. I wish I could turn that feature off, but I use a free software through a public library and I am at their mercy. I am unable to turn off the highlighting, but I figure something is better than nothing. I do not respond to rude and disrespectful messages (sadly, it's becoming far too common on this site.)

My Grandparents: Jackie Gene Gayler, Beverly Guyette Gayler, Douglas Ray Gates, Doris Jones Gates

** If you see that I left a "Flower" with the picture of a banjo, this means they are descendants of Calvin S. Gayler (1822-1866). I am currently trying to solve the research question "Who is the father of Calvin S. Gayler , husband of Cassandra Parrish, who died in Taney County, MO in 1866?" I have created a large family tree on Ancestry.com titled "Gayler Family Reunion Tree" documenting all known descendants. I am also using DNA analysis along with known descendants info to help break through the "brick wall" of Calvin S. Gayler. **
