Tryon Estates nominated Gail Lionetti for induction into the Second Wind Hall of Fame and the board of Second Wind Hall of Fame accepted the nomination.  Gail was officially inducted at Tryon Estates monthly birthday celebration on August 13.

Gail has been active in Tryon Estates since moving here. She serves on Tryon Estates Samaritan Fund Committee as treasurer. She is treasurer of Tuba Christmas and is on the Habitat for Humanity Board. Gail moved to the area in 2021 from New Jersey. She was an executive with Prudential Insurance for 32 years and attended Drew University in New Jersey.

Gail is married to Rocco Lionetti. She loves knitting and all kinds of animals.  Gail and husband were the number-one breeders of parakeets in the US in 1991.  

She would like to be remembered for being a wonderful wife, friend and never saying a cross word to anyone.

The mission of Second Wind is to identify those outstanding volunteers who contribute so much to the quality of life in our community and to provide recognition of retirees sixty years and over who had a useful and productive life continuing beyond retirement while others paused to rest. They caught a ‘second wind’ and began a new career of service to the community and to mankind.

Second Wind Hall of Fame is a 501(c)(3) organization and welcomes nominations for induction. Requests for nomination forms may be sent to carolbrowning72@gmail.com.
