Gayle DeLuca: 1959-2008

via (title unknown) by DQRC on 1/31/09

Gayle DeLuca, a Deaf lesbian, passed away on December 27, 2008 in San Francisco. She was 49 years old.

Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, Gayle set roots in San Francisco over 20 years ago and was a long-time resident of the Castro district. She was known for her energetic, adventurous spirit, beautiful smile and big heart. Gayle was the type of person who was quick to help those in need. She was a long-time member of the leather community and was rarely seen in public without her leather chaps and head bandana. She is missed.

A memorial and celebration of her life will take place on Saturday, February 7, from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Eagle Tavern in San Francisco. Those attending are asked to wear a bandana in her honor.

The Drunk Chinese Lady Next Door's Bricks

The grass next to her driveway was turning to mud from being driven on. I don't know if she thought other people turning around in her driveway was the problem, or if she knew it was from her coming home drunk; but the bricks appeared, creating a border. Not long after, gaps appeared about midway up the drive from where she was running them over and pulverizing them. Shortly after that we noticed they were rearranged most every day in increasing disarray.
