Not sure what to say?

I just found out an hour ago.. I will miss you. Ty for helping me feel like family and being such a wonderful boss. Say hi to my little brother for me

We are deeply grateful for the many years you dedicated to driving our teams to sporting events. You were always so supportive of the kids—watching their games, smiling from the sidelines, and offering words of encouragement. As both a parent and a coach, I truly enjoyed all of my interactions with you. Your friendship and camaraderie were greatly appreciated, and your kindness and genuine care made every trip special. You were a wonderful, kind-hearted man, and your positive spirit touched...

While I did not know Gilbert personally, I do have the pleasure of working with his amazing wife, Bre. She is compassionate, dedicated, and hardworking. As I read about Gil's life, I couldn't help but think about how he shaped Bre and how she shaped him AND most importantly, how they have shaped, loved, and touched others. A Legacy is not formed from WHAT you have done in your earthly journey, it is cast by WHO you've made better and who they will make better. I am fairly confident to say...

Dear Family,

Our condolences, Gil was a good man loved his job and his kids.

God Bless You, "Tex". You are a gentle soul with unbounding compassion. Together we saw SAU 61 through some challenging moments. Now as you navigate your heavenly pathway, let me quote the shortest passage of scripture as I reflect upon your the difference you made in this world: 'Jesus wept.' May God Bless Your Family . Jim Doig

Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

Dear Barrioz family,
We are so very sorry for your loss. Gil was a welcoming face at St. Elizabeth Seaton School, as well as St. Thomas, for our family.
You are in our family's thoughts & prayers.

The Turgeon Family,
John, Laura & Nick

Dad we are truly going to miss you. You were always my Mexican Kenny Rodgers . Everyone knows what an amazing man you were so I know I don’t need to say it . I love you and keep watching over us . Til we meet again Rest Easy and Ride Free . Love you your daughter Ronnie

To our Dear Friend, and exceptional colleague, Bre, and The Barrioz Family, Please accept our most sincere and heartfelt condolences, and know that we are thinking about all of you in this difficult time. What a tremendous legacy Gilbert has to be forever remembered. We are here to support you however we can. Jamie Wakelin - Anchore, Inc.
