Michael John Gabel

Michael you will never be forgotten. We miss you brother!

BRO! Back on jump status again. I was sweating bullets since it has been a hot minute since I was on jump status. My heart felt like it was going to pound outside of my chest. As I stood up and hooked up and got my pat, there was one more "GOOD TO GO" I had a perfect exit and a perfect landing. Thanks brother. Love and miss you.

I served with Michael in the 173rd. I'm proud to have called him a brother. I think of him always and he lives on in my memories. We miss you Mike

Cant sleep tonight. Go figure. Trying not to trip and fall so you would be proud brother, but when I do I try and recover as quick as I can, imagining you are there to help with the load. Check in with me from time to time, it makes me feel better. Thanks for always having my back and keeping me safe, I miss and love you.

You are never forgotten brother. You are a permanet piece of my uniform and I am emended of you and our time together each day I put it on. Love and miss you.

On this Memorial Day, I want all to know that Michael has not been forgotten. His bravery, courage and friendship will always be at the forefront of my mind. Miss you, my friend. May God continue to bless and love your family.

Miss everything about you. Can't believe it's been 6 years. We miss you everyday!
