Not sure what to say?

Wow. Just found out today you had passed. My brother, Eugene n me, will never forget your coming to our island, Bermuda, when we were youngsters, with the lacrosse team. Then me , coming yrs later in the 80s from boarding school in Maine. So sad to read that both you and moms have passed. Loved your entire family.

I am very saddened by our loss of Gibby. I have been blessed to have known Gibby, his best freind and x wife Nancy, and daughter Christeen for years although have not been in recent contact with them. The three of them frequented "Mario's Ristorante" for dinner many times (next door to Gibbys shop) and it was such a pleasure to talk with them. They were the most pleasant and kind folks to be around that I always looked forward to their next visit. It seemed many folks found themselves...

I was stunned and saddened to hear of Gibby's death. He was a wonderful"travel buddy" to and from Colby in his lovely convertable (with no heat!!!!), and I have fond memories of the great sandwiches 'Mom' would pack for the return trips. Gibby is in my thoughts and prayers, as are you, his family.

I was in shock to hear about Gibby. This is a real loss. I have many menories about Gibby and the shop. Most of them were good ones.

I just had knee surgery so won't be able to attend the services, but I will be with everyone in my thoughts.
