Hiya Holly,
I am deeply saddened to hear of your loss. I am currently in the UK otherwise I would be there today.
My memories of Gabe, though brief compared to many others, will be enduring. He certainly left his mark with me at the gym. Always ready with a smile, some banter and a quick joke, he was a great start to the day - and man could he do a heck of a workout. There was nothing held back with him. I had promised him a photograph of the Scottish Borders area where he had gone to play rugby, but I have sadly missed that opportunity.
I cannot imagine your pain at such a loss, but I hope there is some relief for you in the positive influence he has had on so many people, myself included. His memory will definitely live on.
Hugh Elliott

We occasionally met Gabe and the children during our walks with our dogs. He was obviously very much a loving family man with such a nice personality. Very sorry to hear of his passing.

As I watched many go up to share there stories of Gabe today. I sat with a direct view of Gabes photos. My tears rolled down my face and I tried my hardest to suppress my sorrow and gather the strength to make my way to the podium. Every time I looked at and saw his picture thinking of my last moments and conversations my body jolted amd the tears soaked my cheeks.
Gabe to me was the annoying little brother I never had. Our last time spent together was him doing me a favor and driving me home from Halifax. One thing you could also count on and it didn't matter how much time had passed. If you needed help or a favor he would be there.
He got that generosity from his wonderful family and the community they surrounded themselves with. It is a trait thar I strive for myself from seeing it through them.
Gabe was a shining star that brought laughter where ever he went. It breaks my heart knowing I will never sit in a room and laugh with him and Theresa getting their Mother going with their outrageous senses of humor. Stories I will hold to heart for the few outside of the church. Bestly so. One I will share is good old Gabe trying his best to make a prank phone call but had a few too many and forgetting to block his number. Despite me and his Sister telling him "Gabe we can see your number" he refused to break from Character. True to his nature he held on strong and gave it his all despite what anyone told him. You will be missed friend.

I was one of Gabe's high school teachers. Yes he could make me laugh at times and always with a twinkle in his eye. He could get me going. We will miss you Gabe. You were a fantastic rugby player and I remember the time you scored and came running down the sideline to let me know it. My best to his wife and kids in this difficult time.

I was so sad to hear of Gabe’s passing. He truly was an amazing dad and friend. We often ran into each other at the local playground where he would run and play with his kids and mine, and any others who wanted to join in. He was so young at heart and will be very missed. Thinking of you Holly, Casey, Dana and Brady, and the entire family.
