Gail Najarian, 65, of Medford passed away on Tuesday, April 28, at Massachusetts General Hospital of Boston. A lifelong Medford resident, she was the daughter of Josephine (Devito) and the late Satch Najarian. Gail was a remarkable woman. She was a beautiful soul who was so full of life. She took care of her sick father, whom she loved more than anything, for many years. She will be remembered for her beautiful heart, quick wit, her selflessness and her love for all things sparkly.
Gail was the loving and caring partner of Michael Blackman of Medford, and the loyal sister of Karen Matheson and her husband John of Medford, and Satch Najarian and his partner, Linda Lucarotti of Billerica. She was an incredible aunt to Arielle Mason and her husband Shawn of Billerica, Alyssa Foresteire and her husband Joe of Dracut, Satch Najarian of Medford and Krista Najarian of Saugus, and great aunt of Cameron, Michaela and Hannah Mason, Zoey, Gemma and Isabelle Foresteire, Lacy, Satchy and Brooklyn Najarian, and RJ Wheeler.
