Gilbert Kohl

Marion,Marnie & Jan,
Gil will always have a special place in my heart. Memories of the Lester Ave YMCA and learning the art of woodworking from Gil is still a huge part of my life. I remember all the items he helped me build, some that are still in my mother's home today. Bigger than that was his laugh and love of life which I carry with me today. He was a longtime friend to our family and will live forever in our hearts.
Always,
Larry Bell

I was so sorry to hear about Gil. My sympathies go out to you and your family. He will be greatly missed by all. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Marian, Marnie, Jan & Family,
I hope you know just how much the entire Sherman clan loved and will deeply miss Gil Kohl. I think over all the miles and years that we'e been separated we have always thought of you all as part of our extended family and always will. I will always remember that close bond that our dad's had dating back to their early military years. They were as close as brothers. Let's hope that Gil and Erm & Sherm have finally been able to rekindle that friendship in...

Marnie,
So sorry to read that your dad has passed away. Every time I am home and drive down St. Charles, I glance over at your parents house and think of all of you. So many times I have seen them sitting out on the porch together and thought about stopping to say hello. I am now sorry I didn't. My thoughts and prayers for you, Jan and your mom.

Dear Marnie,
I'm sorry to read about the passing of your father. I have been thinking about you this year and wanted to contact you earlier. Please know I understand you loss and will keep you in my prayers. When you get time please contact me.

Dear Marion. Just read of Gil's passing and want you to know you have my deepest sympathy. I always considered you both good friends and I will keep you in my prayers in the days ahead.

Marnie and Jan, I was saddened to see your Dad's obituary. He was quite a guy, so kind and what a sense of humor. I can still remember your mother, and expecially Janet calling him "Gil" The fond memories that I have of him and your mother on St. Charles Street. Jan and Marnie, you were the light of his life.

He is in a better place now, probably doing some kind of carpentry. My thoughts and prayers to your family. Roxanne Silvanic
