Obituary
John George Gaul passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his family, after a short but courageous battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife of 33 years, Vickie Gaul; son, Grant Gaul; mother, Ann Raphael (Mike) of Merritt Island, Florida and a half brother George Joseph Gaul Jr., of Brooklyn, NY. He is predeceased by his father George Joseph Gaul Sr.
John was born in New Haven, Connecticut. After graduating from high school, John headed to Florida and never looked back. He proudly served his country in the United States Air Force and retired from the U.S. Postal Service after 25 years of service. John was an avid hunter and fisherman and shared his passion for the outdoors with his wife and son.
