I don't remember exactly when I first met Gabrielle. I don't remember whether I found her blog or she found mine. I only know that right from the beginning she has that rare ability to make you feel like you have known her for years and she is one of your best friends.
Gabrielle is Broker/Owner at KGC Properties in Tucson Arizona specializing in real estate and property management. After reading her many informative blog posts on each of these subjects it is clear that she knows exactly what her clients needs are and how to best serve their interests.
Gabrielle grew up in Germany but she is as Hawaiian as the Nene, or Hawaiian Goose, found nowhere else on earth.
Most of the last 15 years of my life have been spent either in Hawaii or counting the days to my next trip back and not just any Island will do, it has to be the Island of Hawaii where Gabrielle is from. The similarities diverge a bit from there as I have spent the vast majority of my time on the Big Island on the Kohala Coast and Gabrielle hails from Hilo.
If you don't know Gabrielle you can catch up with her by reading her post http://activerain.com/blogsview/3815514/10-things-from-the-past-that-you-may-not-know-about-me- or this one http://activerain.com/blogsview/3815521/10-things-from-the-present-that-you-may-not-know-about-me- . After reading these you will feel like you know her or you will get to know her just a bit better, and next year you can join the rest of us in cheering her on in the Mt. Lemmon half marathon event.
Gabrielle is a loving mother to her 12 year old daughter (hope I didn't miss a birthday there) Cassandra and is currently still going through a very difficult period, losing the love of her life, her husband Kent, to cancer on July 27th of this year. Just as with our everyday families, her Active Rain family was heartbroken by this tragic news.
If you know Gabrielle I hope you take a minute to get to know her just a bit better and if you don't, you will not regret taking the time to get to know her now. You will not only meet a wonderful human being but you will likely make a lifelong friend.
Me, I just hope I get a chance to meet up with Gabrielle sometime at the outdoor lounge at KPC at the Hilton Waikoloa Village and share a drink with her while watching another of those beautiful Hawaiian sunsets.
ALOHA!!!
