Gabriel Cardenas was born September 28, 1983 in Palestine, Texas to Gilbert & Lupe (Gutierrez) Cardenas. He worked his way up the ladder for several oil and gas companies as a very successful businessman in the oil industry until finally becoming a pipeline inspector for the Apex Company. He especially enjoyed the traveling opportunities that being in the oil and gas business provided.

Gabe was the type of man who never met a stranger. He was constantly making new friends and acquaintances. He loved to bar-b-que and never went anywhere without his speakers so that he could listen to music anytime he wanted. He was very much a social person and cherished time spent with friends, always making people laugh.

Gabe’s family was most certainly the most important thing in his life and he loved each person in his family immensely. He will always be remembered for his generous spirit and larger than life personality.

Gabe is survived by his parents, Gilbert & Lupe Cardenas of Buffalo; fiancé, Alissa Marberry of Jewett; sons, Layton Cardenas of Buffalo and Trey Weiler of Jewett; daughters, Kenzie & Braylee Weiler of Jewett; grandmother, Isabel Luna; brother, Michael Anthony Cardenas of College Station; sister, Jessica Maria Cardenas of Buffalo and nephews, Corbin Ryan and Noah Alexander, as well as numerous extended family and friends.

Walters’ Buffalo Funeral Home, Buffalo is entrusted with final arrangements.
