She taught Grade 1 in Brantford before returning to Hespeler where she spent the rest of her life with her husband Harry, raising their family and working in the Stager Real Estate firm. Volunteer work played a big part in Gay's life. She worked for 20 years with the Cambridge Memorial Hospital Auxiliary and was a past president of that organization.
