I met Gabe at work (the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs) in 2024. He was always approachable, positive, and social. We would talk about work, but he really enjoyed talking about New York area Sports Teams! The Tuesday before his passing, we talked about the Yankees, and what the Knicks would do in the NBA Playoffs. On late Thursday, our team received the sad news. He is truly missed already.  My sincere condolences to his Family and Friends, and those that loved him. Prayers are going up, and may Gabe Rest in Power..

I'm so sorry for the loss of Gabe. I'll always think of him whenever I am over in the neighborhood. He was always a bright light and brought a sense of calm to everyone. He will be missed and never forgotten!
