Arnold, CA…It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Don Fry, a beloved member of the Arnold community and a cherished friend to many. Don was a pillar of local real estate for over 45 years, known for his integrity, generosity, and unwavering commitment to the people he served.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
For more than 30 years, Don owned and operated Don Fry Realty in Arnold, helping generations of families find their homes in the mountains he loved so much. He later continued his career with Century 21 and ultimately with RE\/MAX Gold, where he remained an active and respected member of the Smith Home Team until his final days.<\/div>\n
Beyond his professional achievements, Don had a deep love for life and community. He was a fixture on Monday nights at the bocce ball courts, where he played with joy and camaraderie. He also had a passion for singing, which brought light and laughter to many gatherings over the years.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Don\u2019s commitment to Arnold extended well beyond real estate. He gave generously of his time and talents through his active membership in numerous local organizations, including SIRS (Sons in Retirement), the Lions Club, and many other community groups. He also served on the Board of Realtors for over a dozen years, shaping the local industry and mentoring countless new agents.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Above all, Don was a devoted family man. He leaves behind his loving wife, Beverly Fry, his daughter Kristen Wallace and son Brian Fry, and his beloved four grandchildren, with whom he shared a bond and joy that words can hardly capture. Spending time with his family was one of his greatest joys in life.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As we honor his remarkable life, we invite the community to show their support for Beverly during this difficult time. A GoFundMe page has been created for those who would like to contribute. Donations can also be sent directly to Beverly.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
A memorial service will be held at a later date, with details to be announced.<\/div>\n
Don will be remembered for his kindness, his laughter, his unwavering dedication to this community \u2014 and for the legacy he leaves behind in the hearts of everyone who knew him<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
