Gabriel James “Gabe” Wallace
Lansing, Michigan

Passed away unexpectedly on Friday, June 5, 2026 at the age of 22. Born May 17, 2004 to Ronald Whitney and Kimberly Wallace in Lansing, Michigan. Gabe was an irreplaceable spirit of joy and creativity. His adventurous spirit, funny nature, and creative mind left a mark on everyone he met. Gabe was a master at turning ordinary into extraordinary. His love for life was evident in the way he pursued his hobbies. An airsoft player with his GLLI Group, a video game enthusiast, and a self-taught Lego builder, Gabe's dexterity knew no bounds. He had an uncanny ability to create intricate Lego structures just by sight, a testament to his inherent creativity. His adventurous spirit led him to the outdoors, where he relished exploring new places, always on the lookout for a new adventure. A true friend to all creatures, Gabe was an animal lover who shared his home with lizards, a frog, and his beloved cat, Soot. Gabe’s absence will leave a void in the lives of those who knew him, but his memory will live on in the laughter, joy, and love he shared with them. Preceding him in death were his grandparents, Connie Whitney, Karen Wallace, Bill Richards, and uncle, Mike Sway.

Surviving is his fiancé, Lillian Sinke; parents, Ronald Whitney, Kimberly (Steve) Wallace; sisters, Kaitlyn Wallace, Catherine Wallace; special aunt, Bambi Sway; as well as numerous cousins, aunts, uncles, extended family and friends.
