Samuel Gawel
Help us celebrate Samuel! Please share your stories and photos, and invite others who remember Samuel.
It is with great sorrow that we announce the untimely passing of our dear boy, Samuel Ethan Gawel. Sam was adored by his parents, Randy & Leah, his sister, Sophia, his puppies, Charlie and Walter, and his extended family and friends. Sam was a senior at Dartmouth College, where he was a double major in Earth Science & Anthropology. He was an outdoor enthusiast whose passions included meteorology and snow sciences. His favorite past times were hiking with inadequate supplies, spending time with family and friends, traveling with no plan, cooking exotic foods that produced endless kitchen messes, listening to eclectic music, watching movies, and memorizing encylopedic facts. Sam was best known for being everyone's "best friend," and for his patience, kindness, and empathy. We ask that you remember him by enjoying the outdoors, making the world a better place, and checking in on your loved ones' mental and physical health. A celebration of his life will be held at the Dartmouth Outdoor Club, Occom Pond at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, September 23rd. Donations in his memory can be made to the Mount Washington Observatory, where he interned last Fall: https://www.mountwashington.org/get-involved/support-the-obs/.
