Gail Banfield (66) was born on August 8, 1958, to James and Greta Natoli. Gail passed away on April 22, 2025, in Ithaca, NY.
Gail had a great sense of humor and was always quick to laugh and joke around. She loved music, singing, reading, and playing Texas Hold'em Poker. Gail grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey, and loved to share memories of her time there. Often, when visiting family in the area, Gail would take her sons on "history tours" to places she had spent time when she was growing up, explaining what buildings and places looked like if they had changed.
Gail enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, playing games with them, coloring, reading, teaching, singing, and making crafts. Gail was easily startled, and her grandchildren loved to "scare" her. She also loved sharing memories of her sons when they were young.
Gail is survived by her two children, Barry (Sarah) Banfield of Interlaken, and Allan (Danielle) Banfield of Ithaca, as well as numerous grandchildren. She was predeceased by her father, James Natoli, and her mother and stepfather, Greta and Frank Sapunarich.
At Gail's request there are no formal services.
