Gabriel Thomas Dean

Gabriel Thomas Dean, a cherished infant, was born and passed away on November 16, 2025, in Niles, Michigan, his brief life touching the hearts of those who loved him. Though his time with us was fleeting, his impact was profound, leaving an indelible mark on the souls of his family.

The beloved son of Thomas and Summer (Lindsey) Dean, Gabriel was born with the promise of a bright future. Wrapped in the warmth of his family's love from the moment he arrived, he was a symbol of hope and love for his parents, and a little brother to James Dean, who embraced his role with pride and tenderness.

Gabriel was welcomed into a family rich in love and tradition, cherished by his paternal grandparents, William and Belinda Dean. They envisioned a life filled with joyous milestones and the laughter of a child that would echo through the halls of their homes.

Among those mourning Gabriel's brief earthly journey are his loving uncle, Joseph Dean, and his aunt, Sydney Edgerton, whose dreams for their nephew were as high as the brightest stars. Gabriel now joins his baby brother Beau in eternal peace, where the two will remain forever young, forever missed.

At this time per the family's wished there will be no services. Palmer Funeral Home – Bubb Chapel is honored to be assisting the family with final arrangements.
