Gail “Tòkèkkëmpàhko (Gentle Leaves)” Gould, born to the late Frank Fisher & Jeannette Carpenter-Fisher-Pierce in Bridgeton NJ on January 22, 1960. She began her journey to the creator on May 31, 2023, surrounded by the love of her family in her home in Quinton Township, NJ.

Gail had many titles; among the most important of those are ‘Mom’, ’Grammy’, and wife.

Gail attended Bridgeton Highschool, graduating in 1978. At the conclusion of her time in high school, she worked for many different institutions and establishments. This includes Atlantic City casinos, Inscon Cable, Leones Industries, Wheaton Industries, Farm Rite, Owen’s Supply, etc. However, she took most pride in her involvement in the various jobs and committees within the jurisdiction of her people; The Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation of New Jersey. She was heavily involved in many aspects of supporting her tribal family, both as an employee and a volunteer for majority of her life. This included coordinating the annual Pow-Wow, assisting with elders and elder luncheons, high involvement with Cultural Retention and various youth camps, and so much more. Additionally, Gail spearheaded and laid the ground work for the museum and performing arts center that will come to be known as Achimwit of the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape. But, most importantly to her, she played a crucial role in supporting tribal youth, both through action AND example.

Even in her 50s, Gail continued to inspire by pursuing additional degrees in business, successfully obtaining her Associate’s Degree from Rowan, previously known as Cumberland County College, and continued on to obtain her Bachelor’s Degree from Wilmington University. She proved that you are never too old to chase a dream.

Gail is survived by her husband: Chief Mark “Quiet Hawk” Gould, her siblings: Cheri Pierce, Deborah Pierce, Michael Pierce, and Christopher Fisher, her daughter: Lia “Watching…

No Comments on Lackawanna County church honors military members

A church in Lackawanna County held a special service Sunday as a marine sergeant shared his story.

CLARKS GREEN, Pa. — While it may have looked like a typical service at the Servant Church of the Abingtons in Clarks Green, many veterans and military families filled the pews for a special sermon ahead of Memorial Day.

Including Gina and Jay Jayne, who met during their time in Germany while in the Army.

“The service is for all veterans, first responders, and it just gives them a feeling of hope,” said Gina Jayne from Newton Township.

The Jaynes planned this church service and invited Sergeant Carlos Evans to give service men and women that feeling of hope.

Sergeant Evans came home from his deployment in Afghanistan without his legs and his left hand after stepping on an IED.

Today, the Marine Corps Chaplin shared what Memorial Day means to him.

“So it’s very important to bring awareness, especially to the young generation, that the freedom we are enjoying today has a price,” explained Sergeant Carlos Evans, U.S. Marine Corps.

One of the goals of his sermon was to make sure service men and women feel seen.

“40% are veterans in the community. And they’re amazing because they not only serve their community, but their church and their families, they are so involved,” Gina Jayne added.

Sergeant Evans hopes sharing his near-death experience will encourage other veterans to open up about their stories too.

“There’s purpose in our scars. That we’re not victims of our tears. That we have a purpose, we have opportunity, to look at yourself the way God sees you,” he mentioned.

And help others who may not know someone in the armed forces understands the sacrifices military personnel make.

“Today, I’m touching more people with only one hand…

‘Wall of people’ say goodbye to Gabriel Cabral. Hamilton worker died after Stelco incident: family

No Comments on ‘Wall of people’ say goodbye to Gabriel Cabral. Hamilton worker died after Stelco incident: family

Before he died on May 16 after a workplace incident, Gabriel Cabral was leading a very full life.

The 32-year-old would often be out the door of the Stoney Creek home he shared with his mom and younger brother before 4 a.m., so he could fit in a gym workout before work. Then it was off to Nanticoke in Norfolk County, about an hour’s drive away, where he was a sheet metal worker at Stelco’s Lake Erie Works.

After a physically taxing day, he’d relax at one of his favourite fishing holes on the Grand River, trying to snag some pickerel or bass. Then he’d head home, where he’d often sneak in another workout before going to bed, according to his family.

“He was obsessive about the things that he liked,” said brother Shane, 30. “I tried doing the 4 a.m. gym thing with him and it was insane. I would be so tired and he would be just telling me to hurry up and already on his way out before I was halfway done.”

His mother Pam Fraser says she often worried about his safety on the job, but he would assure her that he was looking out for himself, and she knew he was also the type to look out for others.

“He wasn’t afraid to call people out” if they weren’t doing things by the book, Fraser told CBC Hamilton. “He wasn’t afraid to say ‘no’.”

Gabriel did not return to home – which he also shared with the family’s beloved Wheaten terrier Rosie – after work on April 25.

That day, according to his family, he was burned so badly at work that his family says…
