Inscription/Marks: 11/20/1954
Summary: Gail B. St. Peter, 68, Williston, ND, passed away April 4, 2023, at her home in Williston. A celebration of life was held later that year. Gail Beth Senti was born November 20, 1954 to Ralph and Alice Senti in Williston. She was born with a selfless desire to take care of others. She helped raise and care for all seven of her siblings. She eventually had her own five children to whom which she devoted her life. Her children, in turn, rewarded her with twelve grandchildren, and one great-grandson, which made her a Triple G, Great-Grammy Gail! She loved to be called Grammy. She always made moments special by adding her special words and phrases like “Tadaa!!” or “Sweet dreams and flyin machines!” Gail lived a very colorful life. Her days were filled with trips to the dollar store, water balloon fights, and crazy fun shenanigans with the children in her life. She loved lasting Fleetwood Mac. Her wardrobe was full of tie- dyed shirts and flannels. She was always an individual, and that made her so unique and special to the world. She loved the color blue and butterflies. She loved buttons, bells, rocks and shells. She always carried a giant purse filled with treasures and necessities. She was always prepared for an emergency, an adventure, and/or a spur- of-the-moment birthday party. Gail was like a second mother to many, especially to her nieces and nephews. She kept her doors open with open arms waiting inside. She was full of love, laughs and lots of feist! She was as stubborn as she was kind. Words can't possibly express how much she will be missed. She is survived by her five children: Jacob Nathaniel Mead, Marshall Monroe Mead, Elizabeth Mae Martinez Sparks, Bethany Senti Thomas Adair and Benjamin Herman St. Peter, all of Williston; twelve grandchildren, Macie Mead, Adrian Mead, Logan Mead, Dylan Mead, Morgan Mead, Cody Mead, Braxtyn Emly, Mateo Sparks, Jackson Adair, Meila Adair, Thomas Adair and Harvey Adair; her great-grandson, Nathaniel Mead; her husband, Mark St. Peter, of Williston; brothers, Gary Senti, Brian Senti, and David Senti; and many nieces and nephews who love her to the moon and back. She was preceded in death by her four younger sisters, Karen Senti Meyers, Janice Senti Felde, Valerie Senti, and Debi Senti Coughlin, who meant the world to her. She was also preceded in death by her father, Ralph Senti; and her mother and step-father, Alice Pettis Thompson and Elmer Thompson.
