GLORIA LYNNE FABEL February 12, 1956 – October 5, 2024

GLORIA LYNNE FABEL February 12, 1956 – October 5, 2024

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Gloria Lynne Fabel. Born in Reno, NV, on February 12, 1956, passing on October 5, 2024, in Fallon, NV.  

Gloria had a large, loving, family including parents: Shirley Fabel and Robert Fabel (2003); brothers, sisters & spouses; Bobby Fabel (Judy Aja, 2024), Christine Longfield (Daryl), Lucy Fabel, Beverly Behasa (Mel), Irene Wirick (John), Thane Fabel, Laura Tomac (Steve). Children & spouses Ciera Tanner (Andrew), Shylo Hammond (Megan Scherer), and Amity Orona (Shane), and her grandchildren Audrey & Reeve Orona, as well as many nieces & nephews.  

Gloria was raised in Vinton, CA, moved to Fallon, NV, as an adult, and started a family shortly after. Gloria had a charismatic energy that no one could resist. The love she shared with others was selfless, limitless, and unconditional. She was always open to others no matter what walk of life they had come from, with a hug and a smile locked and loaded at all times. She enjoyed riding her Harley, crafting gifts for everyone, and spending time with family and loved ones. In the last few years of her life, she became a snowbird. She spent summers in Nevada caring for her mother, Shirley, and winters in Arizona adoring her grandchildren. The freedom that she experienced with her travels brought her joy and peace.  

Her creative and loving values are instilled in her children and grandchildren, and they will be carried on. The profound impact that she made on everyone who was blessed enough to meet her will never be forgotten. 

In lieu of flowers, the family is accepting donations for the memorial services using the link https://www.gofundme.com/f/celebrate-gloria-lynne-fabels-life-with-us.

A Celebration of Life will be held on October 19 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Churchill County Museum in Fallon, NV. A program to remember Gloria will begin at 2 p.m. Light refreshments will be provided. The museum, at 1050 S. Maine Street, will be open to all Gloria’s friends and family.

This is a reminder that we as citizens live in a representative form of government and why it is so important that we vote as voting is our way of making our voice heard.

When we bought our land in Kingston, Sis regaled us with her stories of gatherings at the old restaurant & bar on the way to Groves lake. Sis often said, 'What happens in Kingston stays in Kingston!' Fun & funny lady. Comment publication date: 9/8/26, 5:58 PM Comment source: Marilyn J. “Sis” Banovich Comment author: Ruth Fiege Comment text: So sorry for the pain your family is suffering. She is in comfort of Jesus arms. This is Ruth Fiege, Gary's cousin from WI. I can't begin to imagine the pain your family is suffering. So much comfort in knowing she and baby are with Jesus. God Bless you all during this tragedy.
