My condolences to Gabby's friends and family, and all of us she crossed paths with. The day I met her she was sweet to me and just had so much enthusiasm for our work. Gabby had so much knowledge and passion, she was a natural light every where she went. The world is definitely a better place with the imprint Gabby left in the community. May she live in her mother's dreams, and fuel our hearts. Love and prayers.

Gabby was such a special young lady. Always positive. Always caring. Always a joy to be around. I had the pleasure of being her school nurse at Larkspur Middle School. I learned a great deal from her love of life, love of family and her love of community. Her light will be sorely missed. Watch over us Gabby.

Ive never been in awe of an individual until I met Gabby. She was shy when we first met, I was just a photographer who knew her mom. But from that moment, I knew things were different. I was truly proud of the portraits I took of her and she loved them. That allowed a friendship to grow. She would pick on me on twitter. Id reply that she was going to lead the world and I just wanted to be her press secretary. Every interaction I had with her, my world became better. Im over 40 and stress over a lot. But when I would talk to her that stress melted away. She had an ability to make everyone feel loved and valued. And in a world where folks are more focused on themselves or their presence, Gabby made you feel like the most important and special person, when in actuality she was the one that was special and important. I stood in awe of her speaking. I couldnt believe so much love and light could come from such a small package. I am truly humbled and grateful to consider her a friend. Everyone who met her left a better person. No words expressed will ever truly capture her power, her drive, and her love. But we're all better from her being in our lives and she will never be forgotten.

This is absolutely heartbreaking and I can’t begin to imagine the pain your family is feeling once again. I know things feel impossible right now but I know Gabrielle would want you all to fight and be strong because that’s what she would do. She always did. She will be missed greatly but she is still here in all the people she touched. Love you all.

How could mere words describe how magical this young woman is? Just to have been in her presence was like breathing in fresh charged loving energy. For years I watched her and Chrischa fight... fight for living, fight for another day.. fight to just be. I was always amazed at how Chrischa could face each day with a smile and determination. My love, Gabby was born to fight but you, Olivia and your wonderful family showed her how. Continue to love.. you don’t know any other way to live. Blessings of light and love... always.

You had only to speak to her once to know she would do great things with her life, she was a kind sweet person.

It's hard to put into words how much of an inspiration Gabby was/is to me. I'm so proud of her and her many accomplishments in her short time with us. I was always in awe of her warrior spirit! She will live in my heart forever. Sending peace, love, and strength to her incredible family.
