July 23, 1950 - March 6, 2024
Kathleen Theresa Gabel, a nurse and active community member, passed away on March 6, 2024, at the age of 73. Kathleen, known as Kathy to her loved ones, was born on July 23, 1950, in McAllen, TX, to her late parents George and Mary (Danneker) Gabel.
Kathy earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Texas Women's University, furthering her passion for healthcare. She dedicated her life to nursing, providing care to countless patients. She was an active member in her community and selflessly volunteered with the Bellaire Fire Department.

Kathy is survived by her children, Lisa Hall and Jeffery (Jessica) Hall, and her siblings George "Ted" Jr. (Janet) Gabel; Gerard Gabel; John (DeAnne) Gabel; Agnes (M. G. "Butch") Wimberly; Judy (Steve) Zemski. Kathy shared many cherished moments with her siblings, and their familial bond brought her much happiness and love.
A memorial service will be held to celebrate Kathy's life at a private residence on May 11, 2024, at 1pm. Friends and family will join in remembering her and paying their respects.
In lieu of flowers please send a donation in Kathy's name to the Bellaire Professional Firefighters Association - Local 4171.

My first memory of Kathleen was how well she thought of my son, Nathaniel. Being a mom myself I was extremely please that she and my son had gotten so close. I never met Kathleen but her voice as filled with warmth, joy and happiness. Now that I have seen her picture, I know she was a gifted filled spirit. I rejoice that she is now at peace and offer my deepest sympathy to her family. The memories that are left by our loved ones full the emptiness of their presence on earth. God bless all who feel that emptiness.

I´m fortunate enough to be another one of Kathy`s Dog Park pals. That´s where I met Kathy and her daughter Lisa and we would often have nice long chats as our fur babies would have their playtime. I learned a lot from my talks with Kathy as she was very smart gal and also had a very generous heart. I will miss my time on the bench with her and holding her "lady" in my arms as we would enjoy our time together.

What a sweet lady Kathy was. From the day I met her at the Danny Jackson Family Bark Park several years ago, I knew we would be friends. Both of us lovers of dogs.
Kathy along with her sweet dogs "Jumper" and "Lady" always brought fun and laughter to the dog park.
You will (and are) missed at the dog park Kathy.
RIP until we meet at the Rainbow bridge.
We never know Gods plan for each of us.
Missing you dearly,
Marie
