Back during our Moore Park softball league days, Gabe was one of the deadliest fast-pitch softball pitchers of his era. A gifted athlete in other sports as well, but more memorable for me is that he was always a kind, considerate person 100% of the time. About 10 years ago we met at a MJAX reunion in Ft. Lauderdale; I hadn't seen Gabe in over 30 years. He looked amazingly fit and was the same bright, congenial person that he was 65+ years ago when I first met him. We had a great visit. This rare native Miamian will be missed by everyone who knew him; a very worthwhile man.
