Budge 503-429-1811 SERVICES 2012 Gabe’s passion for cooking led him to work as a cook at his family’s restaurant, Santeria in downtown Portland, where his kind nature was greatly appreciated. When he wasn’t working, you would often find him at Backspace, spending time with friends and playing video games. Gabe traveled the US for the last year or so until he settled in Vernonia Oregon. Friday January 13 th , 2012 Gabe died peacefully in his sleep. The humor of departing on Friday the 13 th would not have been lost on him. Gabe will be greatly missed by his family: mother Rebecca Roark, father James Roark, sisters Amanda Eckhoff, Laurelei Roark and Scout Burgett. He will also be sorely missed by the larger circle of extended family and friends. If you would like to make a charitable contribution in his name, these are two organizations that Gabe appreciated: The Panera Cares Cafe at 4143 NE Halsey St. Portland, OR 97232 (donate onsite). Outside In at 1132 SW 13th Ave Portland, OR 97205 (or outsidein.org). As much as we miss Gabriel, he would rather that we laugh about the times we had rather than cry about the times we missed.
