Gayla Aileen Halcomb Ritch Obituary
The passing of Gayla Aileen Halcomb Ritch of Foley, Alabama leaves a void in the hearts of many, as we bid farewell to a loving soul who departed on January 6, 2026 at the age of 78. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
She was predeceased by: her husband Ernest William Ritch; and her parents, Thomas Glenn and Mary Aileen McCollum Halcomb. She is survived by: her daughter Laura Lillian Ritch Morin; her son-in-law Aaron Shannon Morin of Foley; her grandchildren, Gabriel Xavier Morin and Violet Grace Morin; her granddaughter-in-law Adriana Valeria Morin-Rios; her great grandchild Lucas Flynn Morin; and her brothers, Daniel Glenn Halcomb and William McCollum Halcomb.
In lieu of flowers and to reflect Gay's love of music, the family suggests memorial contributions be made to the Huntsville Symphony Orchestra (https://www.hso.org.). Although the Chi-Ho Mansion is now closed, a monetary or item donation to Hope Place, an emergency domestic violence shelter in Madison County (https://csna.org) would also be a great choice to donate to in Gay's memory.
