Gabriel was just 10 years old, and he brought so much joy and laughter to our family. He was funny, cuddly, and incredibly smart. He loved dinosaurs, animals, dragons, robots, and teasing his sister. His curiosity and imagination made every day brighter, and his love for those around him was truly special.

Gabriel died very suddenly from several illnesses. His father and I never expected to lose our child. We've missed several days of work while he has been sick and in the hospital on life support. Now we're having to plan a funeral and the expenses that go with that. His sister is also ill with similar symptoms and has been to the doctor and ER three times now. Tonight, Gabriel will become a hero and save several lives. Our family is heartbroken, and we are doing our best to support each other through this unimaginable loss.

The funds raised will help us cover funeral expenses for Gabriel and support our family as we care for his sister and navigate this difficult time. We are so thankful for everyone's thoughts, prayers, and support of every kind. We especially like to hear how Gabriel has impacted their lives. Several people have asked us to set up a GoFundMe so they can help us finalize his arrangements. Any help is deeply appreciated as we honor Gabriel's memory and try to heal.
