Gaby’s original place of birth was Bsous, Lebanon. He was the 5th of six children and grew up in Beirut, where he met his beautiful wife Leila and was married in 1958 at the young age of 26. Gaby is survived by his 3 children in the USA, Rita, Jacques and Jay and his grandchildren Alex, George, Michael, Sara and David as well as his younger brother Wadih and an extended family in Lebanon and worldwide.
Gaby immigrated to the USA in 1992 and he started a new career at the age of 60 in Dallas, Texas. He was lucky to meet 2 virtuous entrepreneurs who offered him a job as warehouse manager for INET Technologies where he worked for 25 years until his retirement in 2017.
Gaby had passion for Tennis, Backgammon and always loved a good game of Bridge. He had a great sense of humor with an optimistic outlook on life. He never shied away from hard work despite a reconstructed left leg that was crushed during the civil war in Lebanon and made it hard to walk.
