Gabriel Lee Altaha entered into rest on September 19, 2012 in Pinetop. He was born February 26, 1990 in Whiteriver, Arizona. He lived in Hondah, Arizona. Gabriel looked forward to the winter season. He would anxiously await the first snowfall. He knew more snow would be coming soon. While he waited he would clean and prepare his snowboard in hopes that Sunrise would open soon. He loved to cook, camp, fish, travel and channel surf. Spending quality time with his many cousins and friends was always a great joy to him. He always had a smile on his face and would make people laugh. He is survived by his son, Kayron Lee Kenton; parents, Timothy and Eileen (Williams) Altaha; brother, NeKoda Altaha and 2 nieces, Lillian and Summer Altaha. A two night wake will begin at 10:00AM Thursday September 27, 2012 at the family residence, 200 Timber Ridge Rd., Hondah (Apache Dawn).
