She suffered in a mobile home fire. Gail Persear Moody died on March 30th at UAB Hospital, just 19 days after the blaze broke out on March 11th. The Jefferson County Corner confirmed the details.

This tragedy hits hard in a tight-knit community, like Irondale, reminding us how fast things can turn in mobile homes.
