Gage was blessed with high intelligence, a fun sense of humor, and a big heart. Gage was a student of history. From a young age, he loved reading about World War I and II and discussing his interpretations of the great military minds. In every job he held, he was well liked by his supervisors and coworkers. A charming conversationalist, Gage had a kind heart and a sparkle that made it easy for others to relate to him. He loved to make people laugh. Gage's friends describe him as always being there for them. For fun, Gage loved a day at Cedar Point with his mom riding The Magnum. His favorite movies were Hook, Big Trouble in Little China, and Zombieland.

When I get where I'm going
On the far side of the sky
The first thing that I'm gonna do
Is spread my wings and fly
I'm gonna land beside a lion
And run my fingers through his mane
Or I might find out what it's like
To ride a drop of rain

I'm gonna walk with my grandaddy
And he'll match me step for step
And I'll tell him how I've missed him
Every minute since he left
And then I'll hug his neck

So much pain and so much darkness
In this world we stumble through
All these questions I can't answer
And so much work to do

But when I get where I'm going
And I see my Maker's face
I'll stand forever in the light
Of His amazing grace

Yeah, when I get where I'm going
Oh, when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will love and have no fear
