Support for mother of Gabriel Stewart
Donation protected
This fundraiser is being organized to support Carol Stewart, during this overwhelmingly difficult time, following the tragic death of her only son, Gabriel, who was just 24 years young. It is my hope and intention, that we can collectively provide monetary support so Gabriel's mother and family can focus their time and attention on their grieving process, under these extremely difficult circumstances. (News article has been included below.)
Words cannot express the tremendous depth of heartache that Gabe's mother and family are enduring. Just last weekend they gathered for their annual gingerbread house decorating contest and holiday festivities, and now - when they should be preparing for Christmas together- his family is instead planning a funeral, and grieving the loss of their son/brother/uncle.
================================
To give some insight to the young man that Gabe was and the things that brought him joy in life, his family shared the following...
"He was Gabe to us....he loved his family, was a devoted son, brother and uncle. He was a wonderful friend. There are no words to describe how much he loved his mom and siblings.
Gabe was funny and had a competitive spirit, infectious laugh and loved to hang with friends and family. He had a large group of friends who he played basketball with, and went to the movies & played video games with. (He loved playing Apex Legends and Madden on X-box!)
He loved the 49ers, especially Nick Bosa, Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle and Deebo Samuel. He was also a devoted fan of Russell Westbrook, following his career and whatever basketball team he played for.
Gabe was really into Jujutsu Kaisen, and would get so excited every Thursday when a new episode would come out, watching it first and then running to tell his sister about it.
He was also a HUGE fan of Naruto and just finished re-watching the whole series, and loved, loved, loved Naruto!!
He loved riding his bike around town, discovering new places and going on vacation.
Gabe graduated from Freedom High School and was in his final semester at Los Medanos College before transferring to Cal State East Bay. He was employed as a delivery driver with Dominoes for the past 4+ years as he worked his way through college.
Gabe loved music, loved cats & hated spiders! He had a sweet tooth and loved chocolate!
We miss him immensely."

Please keep Gabriel's family in your prayers. If it is on your heart to do so, please contribute any amount that you are able. Your consideration is appreciated more than words can possibly express.
On behalf of the Stewart family, thank you for reading, sharing and words of support.
