“While it is not possible for me to read and respond to each individual message and comment right now, I want you to know that we can feel the energy shared and we are so grateful.
“You have all proven that there is empathy, positivity, and strength in this community that we call humanity here on Earth.”
In the post, Crahan also confirms that Gabrielle’s funeral will take place this coming Sunday (May 26), and adds: “Flowers may be sent to the Scottish Rite Consistory in Des Moines. Cards and condolences may be directed to Iles Funeral Home in Des Moines.”
No official cause of death has been made public.
