What a legendary man. They just don’t make ‘em like that anymore. Such a sad loss. Just to see the great men dying out and nobody to come up in their stead because our society is rapidly deteriorating. People have become, per capita, more horrible creatures than ever before.
Prayers up and blessings to his family as I’m certain this loss they will carry until they see Mr. Gabbert again. As for his soul, it seems that was taken care of long ago by the life he lead.

Our fond memories of the Gabbert Family go back to their days living “across the park” in the Mayfair area (late 1960’s)….. pulling the young Missy in a wagon with his little lawn tractor. Gene was definitely one of the best; sincere condolences to Brenda & family (((❤️)))
