Gabriel is preceded in death by his parents, Joann and William McKenzie.
He was a loving father, brother, and friend to all that knew him. Gabriel loved his children very much and they were his everything. He was a very upbeat, hilarious, and all around wonderful man. His favorite thing to do was be around his children and family and be the life of the party. Gabriel was always trying to make people laugh and enjoy themselves. These characteristic t will be missed the most.
His services will be held at St. Luke’s Lutheran church at 807 N Stapley Dr., Mesa, AZ 85203. The service will be at 4pm and will be followed by a small reception at the church. Donations for his burial can be made at any Wells Fargo Bank to the Gabriel McKenzie Foundation. We the family, want to thank everyone for the love and support that has been shown to us since the loss of our loved one.
