Gabe will always be remembered as my teacher, advisor and friend. He would always do things right and honestly. We had great respect for eachother and he always enjoyed sharing his knowledge with others. - Tovar Family (Jesus, Cristela, Jesus, Cristy, Diana, Frank and Mariana)

I will always remember and be forever greatful to Gabe for his kind willingness to mentor me when I first began to farm and the years that followed. Gabe was the man to turn to for advice in Yuma Valley. He truly was a key to whatever success I have had. I still think of the excitement and passion he had for farming. He will be missed.
