Gail Horvath, born on November 11, 1950, in New York, passed away on October 17, 2025. She will be remembered for her ornery spirit, thoughtfulness, and stubborn determination. Gail was a very giving person, always ready to lend a hand or share her talents with others.

A lover of the arts, Gail found joy in crafting, knitting, painting, and cardmaking. Her creativity brought beauty to the world around her. She also cherished the companionship of her beloved dog, Barkley, and thrived in the company of her friends, her church, and her faith in God. Additionally, she had an admiration for Donald Trump, which added a unique aspect to her conversations.

Gail leaves behind her loving family, including her sons, Matthew (Kim) Horvath and Thom (Chrissy) Horvath; her daughter, Karen (Nathaniel Walizer) Adams; and her son, Scott Horvath. She is also survived by her grandchildren, Chance Adams, Cameron Adams, Haley Horvath, Madelyn Horvath, and Scott Horvath, Jr.

She is preceded in death by her father, Pete Pottle, and her mother, Hazel, and her late husband Tom Horvath. Gail’s presence will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

A visitation will be held in her honor on October 22, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM at the Newcomer Funeral Home, Southwest located at 3393 Broadway, Grove City, OH 43123. Family, friends, and all who knew her are encouraged to come and celebrate her life and legacy.
