Gayle M. Williams. Age 83 passed away peacefully at Joan Nicole Prince Home after battling dementia on March 29, 2026. She was a loving mother to our three daughters and the love of my life.

She moved from Schenectady to the family farm in Charlton, NY in 1949. She graduated from Burnt Hills - Ballston Lake High school with her class of 1960. She was very supportive for any and all sporting activities. After graduation, she attended SUNY, Cobleskill, majoring in Business.
Gayle's employment started at Valley Chevrolet in Scotia, NY as a bookkeeper. She then went to Roland J. Down, Heating and Cooling as a bookkeeper, where she met her husband, David T. Williams, also working at Roland J. Down as a Commercial and Industrial service tech. She then went to Adams Heating and Cooling after Roland J Down was bought out by another company.
