Gail B. Walrath, 60, December 24, 2011; we are celebrating the life of Gail Braund Walrath after a short battle with Pancreatic Cancer. Gail was raised on a dairy farm in a small town of Wetona, PA with her parents Elwood and Leatrice Braund, brother Gary Braund and sister Trudy Braund Sheeley. She graduated from Troy High School in 1969 and then went to work in the East Smithfield Bank where she met her husband David Walrath. They were married on September 22, 1973 and together they managed the dairy operation of Snowcrest Farm. They have been married for 38 years and have a son Scott David Walrath and daughter Melissa Gail Walrath Beeman.
