George Milton Howard Kloster, b. 2 Apr 1919 in Freeborn County, Minnesota; declared dead 2 Jan 1946, and honored at the Honolulu Memorial. He had been a Motor Machinist’s Mate, 1st Class, in the U.S. Navy.

At the time of his death he was married to Ellen Adams Kloster, 519 Bank Street, (either Coquille, Oregon, or New London, Connecticut). He was killed or missing in action as of 11 July 1943, and was considered a casualty of World War II. His last ship had been the U.S.S. Runner (SS 275), a Gato-class submarine that had left Midway on 27 May 1943 bound for the Kuril Islands. On June 26, 1943, she was believed to have sunk the Japanese passenger and cargo ship, the Shinryo Maru. The Runner was declared overdue and presumably lost in July of 1943.

George N. Bentley High School, Livonia, Michigan, class of 1955.

Gayle B. Uilkema
Resident of Lafayette

In the early morning hours of May 19, 2012, Gayle finally found peace after a valiant fight against ovarian cancer.
Gayle was born and raised in Detroit, MI. At the age of 16, on a full scholarship, Gayle attended the University of Michigan and became active in the Student Union and in her sorority, Phi Mu.

After a brief residence in Washington D.C., Gayle came to California in the early 1960's and moved to Oakland, CA, where she taught typing and shorthand at Oakland Technical High School. As Mrs. Gayle Uilkema, she was a business education teacher at Oakland High School in 1963.

In the mid-1960's, Gayle moved to Contra Costa County, first residing in Moraga, having her daughter Lynn, and becoming active in AAUW. In the early 1970's Gayle had her daughter Sharon and soon thereafter moved to her dream home in Lafayette, where she lived ever since.

Dedicated mother that she was, Gayle became active on the Lafayette Park and Recreation Commission in an effort to establish local activities for her children. This served as a launch pad for her ultimate calling: local politics. Gayle's passion and dedication to the community was reflected in her years of public service, which included nineteen years on the Lafayette City Council and 4 terms as Mayor of Lafayette. While serving on the Lafayette City Council, Gayle also obtained a Masters in Public Administration from Cal State Hayward, and ultimately taught the same subject at UC Berkeley Extension, Cal State East Bay and JFK University. She was later elected to four terms on the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, providing dedicated representation to District 2.

Gayle loved Lafayette and Contra Costa County, and found great joy and fulfillment in serving her community. She remained dedicated to Contra Costa County until the end, working diligently from her home even as her disease progressed.

A devout Catholic, Gayle served as one of the first female lectors in the San Francisco Bay Area, and was ordained as a lay minister at Saint Monica's in Moraga and later at Saint Perpetua's in Lafayette. In her rare spare time, Gayle loved working in her garden and completing household projects at her beloved home in Lafayette.

Gayle is survived by her daughters Lynn and Sharon, and her grandchildren Natalie, Nicholas and Henry, her sons-in-law Damien and Curtiss, and her brother Larry.

Georgia, in her youth, loved playing basketball and was proud of winning spelling bees. Georgia raised six children. She doctored them when they were sick or hurt with skill and kindness. She brought her children up in the church and held devotions in the home. Georgia was a voracious reader and faithful correspondent signing cards or letters with "Love and Prayers." She was very proud of her work as a nurse's aid - especially at the Osage hospital where she took care of the newborns. The meaning of the name Georgia is "Tiller of The Earth;" that she was, she loved all forms of gardening. When the ground was not frozen, Georgia could be found planting a tree, putting in a garden or planting flowers. Georgia loved fishing and camping with family, especially on the Mississippi. Georgia always enjoyed people and touched many lives.

Survivors include three sons, Larry and wife Hettie of Poke City, Terry and wife, Carol, and Leon Jr. and wife, Sandra, all of La Porte City; two daughters, Carolyn Lindley of Springfield, Mo., and Marilyn Lindley of Des Moines; six sisters, Barb Leraaen and Mary Kittleson and husband Edward both of St. Ansgar and Audrey Goodew of Smithfield, N.C. and Frances Milne of Waterloo and Sandra Keith and husband Roger of Algona and Eileen Helfer and husband James of Sherrard, Ill.; 17 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren.
