| Adam Gaber's Obituary With a twinkle in his eye, a smile on his face, and a firm handshake, Adam would greet family and friends. His memory was not only accurate, but highly detailed. He was hardworking, yet gentle. Adam had a wonderful way with animals, especially horses. He was a great storyteller. Adam Gaber was also a man of the earth. His daily life revolved around planting, growing, and harvesting. Forecasting the weather became away of life as Adam planned on future events such as how much food to store for the winter or when to plant. He was able to observe the muskrat huts, moon phases, migration patterns, or other of nature's details to foresee the weather. While playing cards with family or friends or dancing with his wife, Adam demonstrated a zeal for these activities. Adam with is remembered for his loyalty and devotion to his wife, Rose.

| Rose Gaber's Obituary Rose had a wonderful way of working with animals. She tamed a bronco, trained a riding horse to do most anything, and rescued her grandson's dog (and him, Dan, several times) from certain calamity. Gardening vegetables and flowers of all kinds, anywhere she could, brought a lot of satisfaction to her. Rose considered playing whist as a time to socialize, not necessarily to win the card game. Her generous spirit and warm personality was seen in her giving to those who came to visit their home and Rose's strong hand shake. A song that reflects her spirit and was a favorite of Rose's was 'You Are My Sunshine'. God Bless the memory of Rose Marie Gaber.
