Gerald Ness Matthew Gabay October 6, 1944 ~ March 14, 2020 Gerald Ness Matthew Gabay (known as Jerry Gabay) was born October 6, 1944 in Phoenix, Ariz. He died March 14, 2020 when visiting friends and a nephew there. Despite being diagnosed with cancer five years ago he maintained a high quality of life. Jerry attained an undergraduate degree from Stan- ford University. After graduation he served during the Viet Nam War as an officer in the US Coast Guard. Following his military service, he attained a law de- gree through the University of Oregon. His first major law position was as a public defender in Baker City, Ore. He later moved to The Dalles where he served as a public defense lawyer before entering the Peace Corps in 1984. There he taught French and his- tory and coached basketball in Malawi, Africa for two years. Upon returning to the US and obtaining a teaching certificate, he began his teaching career as a middle school teacher at WyEast Middle School in Odell. In 1989 he began a family, marrying Susan Blake Kofahl, and welcoming the birth of his greatest joy and his only child, Susanna. He considered being a father his most important job but he had a quite a diverse employment history following her birth: sea- sonal national park ranger at Mt Rainier, Ore., State and US Forestry positions, founding director of the first AmeriCorps project in Trout Lake, Wash., and di- rector of Nuestra Comunidad Sana in the Gorge. Pas- sionate social justice advocates, Jerry and daughter Susanna spent 6 months volunteering at a social and health clinic outside Antigua, Guatemala 2002-2003. Jerry later acquired an ESL teaching certificate, working for The Dalles School District #12 until his retirement in 2008. Continuing his love of travel, he subsequently taught English in Slovakia, Ecuador, and more recently a brief time in Spain. His greatest tragedy was losing his daughter to suicide in 2010 fol- lowing her 5-year struggle with mental illness. Thus began Jerry’s fierce advocacy for people, especially youth, with mental illness. Collaborating with vari- ous organizations and his local legislator in Portland, Alissa Keny-Guyer, he promoted suicide prevention and assisted in successfully passing beneficial legisla- tion to protect against overly legalistic readings of HIPPA guidelines in favor of supportive communica- tion between families and mental health providers. Jerry is survived by his wife, Susan, in Mosier and several nieces and nephews throughout the West. He developed many friendships in the Gorge, Portland, and all over the world. There is much more to be said about Jerry and a community memorial service will be planned later in the year when feasible for his fam- ily members, friends, and our community. Kaye Christine Prouty December 31, 1946 ~ March 13, 2020 Kaye Christine Whipple was born on December 31, 1946, in Portland, Ore., to Geraldine and Thomas L. Whipple. She passed away on March 13, 2020, at the age of 73, surrounded by her family. She was preceded in death by her father when she was only 4 years old, and eventually her moth- er remarried Harold Eng- berg, whom she loved and called “dad.” Kaye grew up an only child in Wasco, Ore., and graduated from Sherman High School in 1964. She received her associate de- gree from Eastern Oregon State College, and mar- ried Joseph Burgett in 1967. They raised a family, including Steven, Marcy and Jodie in Arlington, Ore., and then Dufur, Ore., for many years. Her children have been blessed with so many amazing memories of time spent with grandpar- ents, family vacations, in the motorhome, holiday traditions, and dinner- time around the table. Kaye spent many years watching her kids’ sport- ing events and supporting their many activities, while working at Oregon Bank, and then, Mid-Co- lumbia Vision Center, where she was the office manager, for over 20 years. She truly enjoyed spending time with her friends and family, play- ing pinochle with her club, shopping with her girls, and sipping Coors Light and sharing conver- sations. In 1996 she married Harvey Prouty and they’ve resided in The Dalles for over 25 years. They enjoyed going to Palm Desert for the win- ters, gardening, traveling, Church Directory Bethany Lutheran Church . . . . . . . . 541-298-8385 Pastor Rob Lawson, Principal Pastor Jesse Jacobsen, 2323 E. 12th St. The Dalles.
