A really particular Franklin lady handed away April 1, Ms. Gayle DeCarlo (her maiden title). She was 84. 

She would have cherished understanding she died on April Idiot’s Day. She laughed about every part. She would even assist her buddies chuckle by sending humorous cartoons and tales she would discover on the web.  

Gayle cherished strolling her canine, Mousse, a darkish brown chocolate poochon, and each had been a good friend to everybody, as Mousse got here operating as much as greet you. She was very lively in the neighborhood. She gained a blue ribbon for her candy potato plant and third place for her basil herbs on the Williamson County Truthful. She was lively in conferences concerning the group. She helped assist fundraisers for a younger three month outdated youngster’s coronary heart transplant. And, she donated a picnic desk and a bench on the pond on Pearl avenue, the place she lived. She wished individuals to have a spot to take a seat, eat and benefit from the small park in Westhaven. She lived there for over 16 years, and was one in all its first 100 residents. 

On Halloween, she and her son, Glenn Sweitzer, would park a beat up ambulance in entrance of her home, crammed with smoke and really boney, however fairly full of life, residents (at one time Gayle even volunteered to be on the stretcher). Youngsters left that ambulance screaming with laughter.

She donated a number of basic Disney film posters and had them framed for Westhaven’s theater room. She did this all this as a result of she cherished children, which made sense if you happen to knew Gayle had a particular previous earlier than she got here to Franklin. 

She labored in Los Angeles for 30 years for the Walt Disney Firm. She was The Mickey Mouse Membership’s secretary. The unique membership, with Annette. Gayle was in journal adverts encouraging children to hitch up, and she or he was on the TV present itself. She knew all of the Mouseketeer performers and their dad and mom, as a part of her job. She was additionally required to license all Disney songs and Disney movie music.

Her favourite reminiscence was when she lastly met Walt Disney. It occurred after Gayle had labored for Disney Studios for a bit greater than a 12 months. She and Disney had workplaces within the Animation Constructing off Dopey Drive, on the Walt Disney Studio campus. Disney’s workplace was on the third ground, whereas Gayle’s was on the second.

Getting back from her lunch, Gayle was about to enter an empty elevator, when a voice behind her yelled, “Maintain the elevator!” She turned and “gulped,” amazed to see her boss, Disney. Because the doorways closed, she summoned the braveness to ask, “How are you this afternoon, Mr. Disney?” He did not reply, as he appeared deeply caught up in his ideas. Gayle allowed the elevator to go on to the third ground. As Disney exited the elevator, he turned to Gayle and smiled, “I’m simply high quality, thanks. And my title is Walt. Have a pleasant day!”

Gayle then returned to her second ground workplace, the place Jimmie Dodd, the well-known chief Mouseketeer of the Mickey Mouse Membership, noticed Gayle sitting at her desk together with her eyes glazed over.

He requested, “Are you alright?”

She unblinkingly answered, “He spoke to me!” 

He smiled at Gayle, “You imply our chief?” 

“Sure!” she gasped. 

Jimmie laughed, as a result of he knew Disney had that impact on individuals.

Gayle’s profession at Disney had began on the age of 19 within the steno pool. Solely two months later, she had a place as secretary on the Mickey Mouse Membership Data, which within the subsequent 10 years led to her heading up the music publishing and copyrighting of Disney songs for recording productions.

She left the studio for a number of years to have her two sons, returning to the Walt Disney Music Co. in 1972. By 1978, she had moved up the company ladder to hitch the Administration Data Providers division, which managed all points involving computer systems in all divisions of the corporate from the manager workplaces to the theme park operations.

Throughout her years at Disney, she grew to become a detailed good friend of Sharon Disney, one in all Walt’s two daughters. Sharon labored with Gayle on the studio. Gayle had the nice privilege to be a visitor (one in all solely 90) at Sharon’s very elegant and personal wedding ceremony in a church close to the ocean the place Walt proudly gave his daughter away. 

“It was so stunning. All the pieces was white, and never a mouse in sight,” Gayle mentioned.

Gayle retired from Disney in 1994 and later moved to Tennessee to be close to her youthful son, Glenn, who’s a music video producer, and his household, whereas her older son Jeff, stayed in LA.

A couple of years in the past, she mentioned, “I cherished working for Disney, and now I really like my life right here the place each day is an journey. I get to take pleasure in assembly so many individuals by means of Mousse … everybody is aware of Mousse!”  The Mousse is lacking her, however he appears very blissful in his new house.

Her son, Glenn, is placing up a brand new bench in Gayle’s honor (donations are accepted), for the reason that different one had fallen aside, so Gayle’s reminiscence will stay within the little Westhaven park the place she and the Mousse cherished to stroll.

She went from Mouse to Mousse in 30 years, and cherished each minute of it.
