Christine Gaul, 91, recently of Lenexa, Kansas, but a 38 year resident of LaGrange, Georgia passed away on January 23, 2019.  Chris was born in Kansas City, Missouri, and graduated from Paseo High School before attending the University of Kansas in Lawrence.   She worked for the Staley Milling Company in Kansas City and for a number of years was employed by State Farm Insurance at agencies in both Mission and Shawnee, Kansas.

They loved their many travels, especially times spent in their motor home.  Her other interests included playing bridge, working in her yard and volunteering for activities with developmentally disabled children. Chris was much loved and will be greatly missed by her sons, other family and friends.

Survivors include her son and daughter-in-law, Brant and Mary Ellen Gaul, of Lenexa, Kansas; grandchildren, Brenna and Derek Gaul; son, Steve Gaul, of Lincoln, Nebraska; and daughter-in-law, Vikki Gaul of Sarasota, Florida.
