Gabriel Alexander Acosta's Obituary
Gabriel Alexander Acosta, 11, of Houston, gained his wings, Saturday, November 12, 2016. He is survived by his parents Alexander R. and Julia P. Acosta, his brother Anthony N. Acosta; grandmothers Dora M. Salazar and Francisca Acosta; uncles Andrew Acosta, Alfonso Cardenas Jr., Luis A. Cardenas, Christian Cardenas and Christopher Cardenas; aunts Sarah Cardenas and Martha Salazar; great grandparents Gloria Valdez and Mario Rosas, along with several other aunts, uncles and cousins.
Gabriel’s sweet nature and kind heart reached so many people that had the blessing to cross his path. He was never the type of child that would turn down a video game or watch any Iron Man movie with the family. He usually could be found with a tablet or phone in his hand, but when he wasn’t busy being a genius gamer he would be out with his family exploring new places or playing with his brother. He is your typical boy with passions like Star Wars, Superheroes, Skylander, and Minecraft. He enjoyed going out to eat especially eat at Hibachi style places.
There are no words that explain how much we are going to miss our angel, but we know he’s in a better place. Although his time with us was brief, his impact in our lives will be there for an eternity. We love you more.
