““Have to stop and give a Thankyou to the big man upstairs ! Got a lot going for myself right now, I’m forever grateful“ -Gabe
Life story
Gabriel Sellers aka Gabe, or “Gabe the Babe” the name he had given himself. Born on March 3 1999, unexpectedly lost his life the Sunday morning of October 22, 2023, while riding his motorcycle for the last time before selling it later Sunday evening.. when a car suddenly pull out in front of him on his way to the corner store a few blocks away from his home..
Gabe obviously loved himself, per the nickname, he also loved his family. He loved 1 little girl most, his daughter Paizlin Alisabeth-Grace, his baby girl that had him wrapped around her finger since the womb… words couldn’t describe the love he felt for her.
Gabe worked for Pedulla and started detail & tint on the weekends as a side job. Which grew to him getting an LLC and becoming the owner of Prime Quality Detail & Tint. He eventually saved up enough to buy a shop for his detail & tint business and he was SO proud of that shop and the sign. He felt very good seeing his company name on a shop building. He couldn’t wait to show it off to everyone. Gabe was an adrenaline junkie hands down, he’s been cutting flips since he could walk. He liked to spend his weekends wakeboarding in the summer and snowboarding in the winter at Beech Mountain with his closest friends, Jacob & Carlos. He won multiple awards in wakeboarding competitions. Needless to say Gabe excelled at everything he did.
I hope everyone he loved & who loved him, takes advantage of this neat way to remember him, honor him, and share the many memories made with him. -KS
Hey Gabe. I had a baby, like I have two whole kids now. I named him after you, Greyson Alexander, his initials are like yours, GAS. The way he looks at your pictures it’s like he knows you. I like to think he does. Jaxson and I took him to the rock for the first time and Jaxson said “uncle Gabe sent Greyson to your belly just for me and you mommy”. I really believe that, too. I miss you Gabe, we all do. Please watch over us - especially mama.
I miss you every second of every day. I text you every single day and tell you everything that is going on. My heart is forever broken. I love you always
I was watching the Snapchat memories this morning, a memory (video) I took of you two years ago today, came up. It was when you were renting a bay from Jason and you had asked me to come pick you up, and so I did. I was recording you finishing up a SUV and you can hear Jax in the background calling you “gave” lol. I didn’t think he would have memory of you for much longer but he’s surprises me everyday.. he’s always talking about his uncle Gabe, and reminding me that uncle Gabe ran his bike over, and my car hahaha. I miss you Gabe. I always will.
I love and miss you so very much. The pain is so deep, there is no way I can even explain it. I'd give anything for just one more hug, one more smile, one more laugh, and to hear you say I love you mama. You will never be forgotten Gabe, I will always just look up and talk to you.
Hey Gabe, I got paiz this afternoon she’s going to stay over night. Kayla, Sissy, and daddy came over to give her the Easter basket he & Jeana put together for her. Sissy brought cupcakes 🧁 and Kayla brought empty Jim Bean bottles. We all sat down and made handmade birthday cards for you & put them in an empty bottle. We all went to the rock & paiz asked to pick a spot for the bottle, as she sat it down she whispered “Happy Birthday Daddy I love You”. It was heartbreaking. We all miss you so much Gabe and I hope I’m doing enough to “keep your memory alive”. I don’t want your memory to die with you.
Today is your 25th birthday, your first birthday in heaven. We all went to church then to eat at Golden Corral, one of your favorite restaurants as a kid. It’s weird how all the family has came in town or got together just to celebrate you - it’s you we are celebrating and you’re the only one who isn’t here for it. I hope you’re having the best birthday in heaven. I hope you’re doing all the things you love, chasing adrenaline lol. It’s been a tough day for us especially mama. Please watch over her, give her strength to get through this. We miss you so much Gabe , it will never be the same without you. Jax has been watching videos of you two together. Happy Heavenly 25th birthday Gabe. Me, Destin, Mama, Kyndall, Leslie, Salem & jax, will come to the rock when Paiz is dropped off, to wish her daddy a happy birthday. I love and miss you so much. Thank you for being my brother, being the best brother in the world that a sister could ask for. 😔🧡🏂
September 17 2016 - the day Gabe, Bri, kyndall and myself went to celebrate our dad’s 40th birthday. Hours before he and Bri showed us a positive pregnancy test then being t-boned by 5 cars - nearly losing more than one life.
Gabe and I posed for a picture together, he put his arm around me and I put my head on his chest. It’s on of my favorite pictures that I have. You can see how close we were, he’d been my best friend since he took his first breath; til he took his last one.
Gabe, I always hope you show me signs that you’re here with me but, right now I’m hoping you haven’t seen me recently. I miss you so much Gabe. Please help me find the strength to get through these next few days - at least enough to make it through socializing with both sides of the family this weekend while we’re celebrating you & your birthday. Everyone is coming into town to be here for it.. you’re the only one who won’t be here & it’s your birthday we’re celebrating 😔 I love you gabey
He was a very very living and caring guy he would do anything and everything for anyone but mainly his sisters and his family. He is forever and always in our hearts 🥰 we live the family and pray everyday for yall🙏❤️
When my brother was born I made a life long best friend. Growing up I mainly chose to hang out with Gabe & his friends til I was a tween. Gabe and I did everything together, played, laughed, fought, chased with knives 🔪. I remember I was 5 he was 2 1/2 /3, I don’t know what started it whether it was a playful knife chase or he wanted to kill me. But, he chased me down with a big kitchen knife like he was Michael Myers. It’s one of my earliest memories so it felt right to add it as my first. I love & miss you Gabey.
I hope that memory makes someone laugh 😂
Uncle Gabe 🧡
