Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on
And cherished memories never
Fade because a loved one is gone
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart
For as long as there is a memory
They will live on in the heart

Very sorry to hear of Gilbert's passing. He was a very warm and caring person, who will be missed by all who knew him.

Perhaps you didnt know just how many people whose lives you touched. Because you were such an unassuming man, you never realized how many people will miss you. God , watch uver Gilbert and wrap your loving arms around his family.8E

My dad was always there for anything that anyone ever needed. It didnt matter if it was for Randy or I, our wives and children, the neighbors or anyone in our racing community. We joke and are not saying he wouldn't complain about it like any normal person, but he never had it in his heart to say no. He just made it happen. He will be missed by all as he was a great person and teacher on all levels. He definitly lead by example and let his work speak for itself.

Gilbert-
Thank you for being such a kind, loving man. I have you to thank for my amazing husband because he has always looked up to you. You have been a wonderful husband, dad, Papa, brother, and best friend; the best anyone could ever ask for. You will always hold a very special place in my heart.
Love Always,
Nicole <3.>

Gonna miss this sweet man. I have only known Gilbert for a short period of time but, I fell in love with his big smile and sweet kisses on my cheek.
Rest peacefully in the arms of our gracious Lord and God.
