Gabriel Daniel Orosco

Gabriel is survived by his mother, Graciela Ruiz and stepfather Raul Ruiz; his father Daniel Orosco and stepmother Maria Orosco; older brother Roberto Orosco and girlfriend Jamie Frizzell; younger brother Orlando Orosco and wife Amber Orosco; his nieces and nephews Ava Orosco, Alexis Orosco, Sophia Orosco, David Orosco and Dean Orosco; his stepbrother JD Ruiz and wife Elizabeth and their daughter Emily and his stepsister Alysha Ruiz. Gabriel was also survived by many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Gabriel was born November 20, 1979 in the Philippines while his parents were stationed there with the U.S. Airforce. Gabriel spent most of his life and time growing up in and around the Sugar Land, TX area where he made an endless number of friends who shared many adventures with him. Gabriel had an unending love for his family and friends and never met a stranger. He took the time to always check on his family and friends to make sure they felt his love for them. He had a special place in his heart for his brothers, nieces, and nephews but most certainly his mother. He had a contagious smile and an enormous heart. His love of collecting and trading toys led him to his final passion that he shared with his loved ones, from finding the coolest new car for his nephews or hard-to-find Lego sets for his nieces. He bonded with his brothers Roberto and Orlando over toys as well and this is where he made so many friends as well in last few years of his life.

A Memorial Service for Gabriel is scheduled at 2:00 p.m.; February 20, 2022 at the Katy Elks Lodge. 1050 Fort Bend Road; Katy, TX 77493.

This will be a celebration of his life and we hope that you can all join us to remember Gabriel, break bread and share stories and time together, because that is the most precious thing after all.

Because of Gabriel’s immense love for all things Toys, Comics, Super Heroes, Star Wars, Marvel, DC and everything Cartoons we ask that instead of coming in mournful clothing, as we celebrate his life, you all come in your favorite comic character, super hero, cartoon, toy, or Star Wars t-shirt. Please, bring an unopened toy for donation to the Ronald McDonald House of Houston, TX. We will also have a silent auction of some of Gabriel’s artwork and toy collection with all proceeds going to the National Kidney Foundation.

Gabriel struggled with diabetes for several years and felt very passionate that patients needed more help than is available to them. In lieu of flowers please make all donations to the National Kidney Foundation in Gabriel’s name. https://www.kidney.org/donation
