GAIL PATRICIA HAMRICK BRITT, 90, of Spring Hill, Tennessee, departed from this life in OAKLAND, TENNESSEE and entered the glorious presence of Jesus Christ on the 11th of November 2026. Born in Greenville, South Carolina, she was the daughter of Norris Cade Hamrick and Georgia Dayberry Hamrick of Spindale, North Carolina. She is united in Heaven with her husband, Dr. Charles L. Britt, Sr, the love of her life for 64 years.

She leaves a daughter, Adina L Sparks (Dennis) of Oakland, TN, a son, Charles Britt, Jr (Daphne) of Dawsonville, GA and a daughter LeeAnne Blair (Joe) of Spring Hill, TN. She also leaves eight delightful and beloved grandchildren, Laura Callen (Patrick) of Boulder, CO, John Sparks (Christina) of Memphis, TN, Cade Blair (Lizzy) of Tampa, FL, Jude Blair, Quinn Blair, Tate Blair of Spring Hill, TN, Matthew Britt and Rebekah Britt of Dawsonville, GA and two great-grandchildren Maverick Callen of Boulder, CO and Sofie Jane Sparks of Memphis, TN as well as many nieces and nephews, and a host of dear friends. She was preceded in death by a sister, Broma-Jean Harrigan of Spindale, North Carolina, and brothers Wyman Hamrick and Gary Hamrick, of Spartanburg, SC.

Mrs. Britt was a graduate of Rutherford Central High School in Rutherfordton, NC. She attended Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina, studying Education and Vocal Performance performing as a soloist for Vespers and Hymn Histories Radio Broadcast. Gail worked as a Music Librarian at Bob Jones University and served as a devoted Pastor's wife, loving mother and Voice Teacher during her life. She had a warm, sensitive style when singing and playing the piano. She saw singing and teaching voice lessons as her opportunity to serve the Lord and inspire others to worship through singing Gospel songs and hymns. Her favorite childhood Gospel song "Pass Me Not O Gentle Savior" and life verse Psalm 73:25-26 "Who have I in heaven but you? And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever" give evidence to her lifelong love and devotion to her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

A proud mom, she took much delight in rearing her two daughters and son and was greatly supportive of their many activities throughout the years. They were the joy of her heart, wonderful gifts from God. A devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, her constant love and encouraging words were continually cherished by her family members. Our family mourns the loss of this dedicated Christian lady even as we celebrate her influential life.

A private burial will be held at Spring Hill Memorial Funeral Home, and a Memorial Celebration of Life service will be held later at Community Baptist Church in Spring Hill, TN. In lieu of flowers, gifts may be made to Community Baptist Church in Spring Hill, TN www.cbcspringhill.org or St. Jude Children's Research Hospital www.stjude.org.
