Joy, Dick Caleb & Paula: Our deepest condolences go out to all of you at this very sorrowful time in your lives. We were reminiscing the other night of the wild and crazy things Gabe used to do when they were in high school with Dan, Ryan and the boys. From jumping off our roof into the swimming pool and other mischievous acts but everything was always in fun. His outgoing personality and wit was always in his favor. He is at peace now in God's hands and will be looking out for all of us. We loved ya Gabe! Charlie & Rich
