On December 19, 2023, the world lost a remarkable individual, Gabriel Kelly Beaumont, who earned his angel wings far too soon. Born on October 18, 1985, in the serene town of St. George, Utah, Gabe’s journey through life was marked by passion, dedication, and an unwavering love for his family. Gabe’s family relocated to Hurricane, Utah, in 1990, where he began to carve out his path in sports, excelling in soccer and Little League before progressing to track, football, and basketball during his high school years.
Even at a young age, Gabe showcased a unique combination of brawn and brains, earning the prestigious Eagle Scout Award at the tender age of twelve. His high school football team recognized his academic prowess, awarding him the trophy for the Greatest Brawn and Brains—an acknowledgment of his stellar GPA. Gabe’s athletic achievements attracted attention from various colleges, with Puget Sound holding a particular allure. However, driven by a sense of purpose, he chose to put his aspirations on hold to embark on a two-year mission to Monterrey, Mexico, where he dedicated himself to service.
