Gail L. Sielski, age 78, passed away peacefully on Sunday, June 9, 2024, surrounded by her loving family.

Gail was born May 27, 1943, in Kidderminster, England, daughter of the late Mann and Brenda Ihlenfeld. She attended schools in Manitowoc and worked at Kmart for several years. Gail had a great love for animals, and had too many pets to count over the years. She also enjoyed her camping trips to Point Beach State Park with her friends Linda and Louise. Above all, Gail loved her family – and she especially loved being "Gigi" to her great-grandson, Jackson.

Gail is survived by her two daughters: Brenda Sielski, Manitowoc, and Theresa Sielski, Manitowoc; four grandchildren: Kayla (Nate) Sumner, Stephanie Sielski, Suzanne Sielski, and Sadie Sielski; and great-grandson: Jackson Sumner. She is preceded in death by her parents: Mann and Brenda Ihlenfeld, and her son Dennis "Howie" Sielski Jr.

Cremation has taken place at the Harrigan Parkside Funeral Home and Crematory. A private family gathering will be held at a later date.
