It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gayle Arce, 79, on October 29, 2024. Gayle was born on August 1, 1945, to Bill and Bertell (Fouch) Freed and grew up in Williams, CA.

Gayle’s greatest joy was spending time with family and her many friends. She will be remembered for all the heart she shared with them. She truly loved each of them and made an impact on many lives. When her time came, she carried herself with dignity, strength, and full of love for those who blessed her life. She will be missed dearly.
