Customized notifications messages versus Gmail notifications

I apologize if this question has been answered already. (couldn't find it on the Forum)

While I can set up customized ringtones for specific contacts I cannot set up customized message notifications for specific contacts without it changing my Gmail notifications. Or if I try and set a customized notification for for all GMail, it will then change the notification sound for all messages.

I have also changed message applications from Messages to Verizon messages + with the same outcome.

In the past when I received a text message from my loved one (I had a specific notification sound) I knew to read it right away just as when they called their customized ringtone gave me a heads up.

I could tell you all the ways I have tried to make Gmail sound notifications different from messages and making customized notification sounds for specific contacts and not have it effect GMail, but I don't want to bore you.

Thus my question is: Has this capability died? If so, then I will not wrack my brain anymore.

Thank you in advance,
