I need help...  / Sissy (Sister)
I always thought I as I would grow older you would come to me for advice first about school then girls & so on. But things have changed since then. I am now with Matt & he cares about me so much but I keep thinking mom may be right. Do I follow my heart or my mind? You were always so happy even in pain and yet I let fear get in the way. I wish I had you at my side. Please be with me & help give me courage on my journey through life. Close

Just a quick note  / Mommy (Mom)
I just wanted to say how much I miss you. Even though I dont write to you every day I do love and miss you. I think about you all the time and wish I could watch you grow. Michael is getting so big. He is learning so fast and doing so muchon his own I just wish I could watch the two of you grow together, that is the way it is suppose to be. I miss you my angle love and kisses to you Close

Mrs / NormaJean Toler (none)
Here I see a strong family makeing an even stronger life which includes Gabriel every day.  IT is good to have him in your heart and head.  IT is good to remember.  THIS site took a lot of strength to make.  KEEP building things remembering this boy.  THERE is no end of life.  There is just a transistion.  When my father died I saw the transitions everywhere.  My relatives didn't die either.... they just moved to another state.  Shame they could not have all stayed with us.  I see them occasionally as they are going somewhere doing something else.  IN another body mostly.  As another person.  BUT there are relatives everywhere.  Gabriel is somewhere here.  Look for him.  HE will tell you things when you do not know it.  Let Him do this.  THE Good Lord has his hand on this and everything we do.  LET HIM help you hear Gabriel.  THIS is a wonderful thing to do.  You are strong and with Gabriels help you can be even stronger.  Please keep adding pictures as his brother grows up too.  I would love to see them too.  normajean Close

Happy Birthday  / Mommy (Mom)

I cant believe it has been 2 years since I lost you. I cant belive we never got to celebrate a birthday with you. I cant belive that Michael turns 3 today and you will forever be my baby. I miss you Gabriel. I miss you every day. I cry for you every day. We will set your yellow balloons loose to fly to heaven like we do every year. I hope you like them. I would rather buy you a present but I just dont know how to get it to you so instead I will continue to send you the balloons and all my love.

Be Mine  / Mommy (Mom)
It never gets easier. Each day goes by I want to hold you and tell you how much I love you. Every holiday I think about the gifts I want to get you and how I will never get those cute little homemade cards and presents from you. I miss you my sweet littl cupid. Love Mom Close

Again / Mommy (Mommy)
That time of year is coming around again. I wish I had the guts to join you. I wish I could be with all my kids at once. I wish so many things and nothing ever comes of it. I wish i had those 11 months to live over again. Even if I couldnt save I wish i could spend that time holding you and watching you sleep. I wish you were here to play with Michael and to drive me crazy. I wish my arms werent empty without you. I miss you so much and nothing eases the pain. I loved you so much and still love you. I wanted to teach you so many things and to watch you grow up. I would give anything to have you back. I love you. Close

One more day  / Mommy (mommy)
Gabriel I miss you so much. I am so tired of crying all the time crying alone. I cant talk to anyone because it makes them sad or they tell me to get over it. Your not an it your my son and I will never get over loosing you. If I could just understand why you left maybe then I could except it. I love you my angel have wonderful dreams. Close

So tired  / Mommy (Mommy)
I dont know how much more I can take. I lost my son at 11 months because the doctors were stupid and sent him home. But I was the one that was stupid I let them, I knew how sick he was and I let them. He was so cold that morning. Why did I wait to call 911, why did i leave the house once help got here, why wasnt i there in his last moments. I cant take this pain any more. I just want it to end. I want to be with my son. Close

Pain / Mommy (Mommy)
I am so tired. I wish I could just lay down and never wake up. Today it took all i had to not cry while shopping as I saw a couple of twins running down the aisles. I wish I had the stregthn to take my own life, each night i wonder when I will finally loose it and just break down completely. I think of you all the time and cant think of you with out crying. I think of you when Michael gives me a kiss and wish I could trad a 100 of his for just one of yours. I once heard a conversation about a "test" of if you had two kids and they were both drowning, and you could only save one which one would you save? It was an easy question to me, you save the weaker one hopeing the stronger can save theirself, or you save the closest one so you know you can get to that one. But now I feel like I am in that ocean. I feel like I have to decided between being with Michael or being with you. If i was with you in heaven the pain would be gone. I dont know how much longer I can live with the pain. Oh my sweet sweet little boy. I miss you so very much. Love Mommy Close

Missing you  / Mommy (mom)
Each day just gets harder. I cry over the littlest things. I miss you so much and then there are times that I honestly think you are still with us. It is so great but then I know it is not true and i know I will never hold you again. I am so tired of feeling this way. I dont want to get better, I am afraid if I start to get better I will start to forget you. I wish I had the guts to just take enough med's to not wake up. I love you. Close

Thanks to you my sweet brother...  / Sissy (Sister)
Thanks to you...I found a way to show my emotions. Thanks to you I picked up a pencil & started writing. You have touched so many heart, even of those you never met. But you encouraged me. You are my true hero, the one I look up to. Thanks to you, someday I might live the higlife in a big city, or an excluded ranch in the mountains. Thanks to you I am getting published & have learned where I belong. I love you sweet brother & will never forget you. Close

Prayers for your little Angel Gabriel  / Marci Trapuzzano (None)

Dear Michelle and Family,

You do not know me.  My friend, Teresa Kesterson, who recently lost her beautiful two year old daughter, Kylie, to cancer, sent me your e-mail requesting prayers for your family and your precious Angel Gabriel.  Words cannot express the sorrow I felt for your loss.  Gabriel was a sweet baby boy.  I can tell by his pictures that love eminated from his tiny heart and how much the family deeply loved him during and after his earthly journey.  I will keep you, Gabriel and the entire family in my daily prayers.  Sometimes there aren't enough words that can be communicated...

With sincere sympathy,

Marci Trapuzzano

My love for you...  / Sebetha *SISSY* (Sister)
With each & every day I tell myself it's all an endless night mare. I pinch myself, & try to wake, but for some reason my body won't respond. I now think that with each day, I got my only wish I ever asked for. "To see my brother on my birthday" Now my wish has changed, to somthing so much more.  All I want, is to see him once more. Now it only gets harder, knowing the time is coming, when once again my life crumple with the remains of my heart.

Holidays / Michelle Orlovetz (Mommy)
Gabriel it has been so hard lately with out you. I miss you so much and I know your Daddy does too. Your sister got into a really bad accident in November but you already know that. I have to thank you for watching over her and makeing sure she got home safely to me. It has almost been a year since you left me but I still cant make peace with it. I have celebrated every holiday there is in a year with out you. I think this Christmas was the hardest. Oh little boy how i want to be with you. Love always Mommy Close

My Poem to you  / Michelle (Mommy)
Oh baby boy you were so strong
I wanted you to fight
Was that so wrong
But you followed the light

Now I am the one in pain
Boy with eyes so blue
I want to open a vein
If only someone knew
Close

Missing you  / Michelle (Mommy)
Oh Gabriel it has been almost 8 months since I have held you. I MIss you so much. It seems strange how that 8 months can be so long while the 11 months you were here seems so short. I feel cheated. PLease know I would have done anything to save you and would have taken care of you no matter what. Mommy miss you so much and I know Michael misses his twin too. ILYSWAK Close

Missing you  / Michelle (Mommy)
My dearest little boy I miss you more with each day. I cant believe it does not get any easier. IT has been 6 months now and I kept thinking it would get easier but it doesnt and I miss you so much and you have not came to see me in so long. Some how I thought  in the beginning that you would come back that we would be together again maybe i needed to think that to get through it but now I know you will never come back and I dont know if I can keep going. I think about Halloween and how I had planned on you wearing the same costume till you out grew it just so we could say you did and now it is in the garage never to be worn again. I got a new refrigerator and I cry knowing that your art will never hang on it. Oh little one I miss you so much and wonder what you would be doing if you were here. I just dont think I can go on without you. I miss you so much I cant wait till I am strong enough to join you. I love you angel of mine you will always be my baby and you will always be Mommies big boy. Kisses and hugs to you. Mommy Close

God Bless  / Dawn

The memories are what he has given you ...god bless you and keep you all safe and healthy and know that Gabriel is smiling down on all of you

MY HEARTFELT CONDOLENCES, TO YOUR LOVELY FAMILY.

GABRIEL:

IN A QUIET PEACEFUL GRAVEYARD
WHERE GENTLE BREEZES BLOW,

AND HELPS US TO FORGET.
BUT TIME SO FAR HAS PROVEN
HOW MUCH WE MISS YOU YET.
WE HOLD YOU CLOSE WITHIN OUR HEARTS
AND THERE YOU WILL REMAIN,
TO WALK WITH US, THROUGHOUT OUR LIVES
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.

REST IN PEACE WEE ONE! Close
