Obituary of Gail Millard

Gail Millard

November 22, 1961 ~ January 16, 2026

Gail Millard (née McBride) age 64 of Stettler, Alberta passed away suddenly on January 16, 2026. She left us surrounded by those she loved, leaving a legacy of kindness, laughter, and a deep devotion to her family and friends.

Gail was a loving wife, mother, sister and friend whose tenacity could be felt by everyone she knew. She shared a beautiful life with her devoted husband Ron and was a proud and loving mother to Jodi and Janice, who were the center of her world.

Gail had a zest for life. She found joy at the curling rink, on the golf course, and especially while travelling – embracing new experiences, places and memories alongside those she loved.

Above all, Gail will be remembered for her generous and open heart, support for those around her, and care she showed to family and friends alike. Her laughter, compassion and presence will be deeply missed, but her spirit will live on in the countless lives she touched.

Gail leaves behind her beloved husband of 44 years, Ron Millard; children Jodi Millard and Janice Millard; brothers Ken (Brenda) McBride and Phil (Diana) McBride; sisters-in-law Denise (Gordon) Nitschke, Colleen; many nieces, nephews, extended family and many dear friends who will forever hold her memory close.

Gail was predeceased by her mother Maretta McBride; brother Donny McBride; niece Tracey McBride and great uncle Bill Fayter.

She will be lovingly remembered and forever missed.
