Gayle Marie (Landeck) Cushman

GRAY – Gayle Marie (Landeck) Cushman, 65, passed away on Monday, May 22, 2023 at the Gosnell Memorial Hospice House following a long illness.

Gayle was born on July 5, 1957 in Portland to Donald R. Landeck and Rosealine T. Gormley.

More than anything, Gayle loved spending time with her family and friends during the summers at their camps on Little Sebago Lake, and Coffee Pond. As well as her “legendary” karaoke performances at bars and clubs in the Gray-Windham area, where she was often a fixture on Friday and Saturday nights.

Besides her parents, Gayle was predeceased by her brothers, Glenn and Jeffrey Landeck.

She is survived by her husband of 45 years, Terrance Cushman Sr. of Gray; three sons, Terrance Jr. of Conway, SC, Eric Cushman of Gray, Corey Cushman of Portland; a brother, Dana Landeck of Wells; three granddaughters; as well as several cousins and lifelong friends.

At the family’s request, all services will be private. Burial will be in Cavalry Cemetery in South Portland. Arrangements are under the direction of the Conroy-Tully Walker Funeral Home, 172 State Street, Portland, ME.
