I did not realize Mr. Gilmore passed away until today. I am so sorry to hear about your loss. As an old friend who went to school with Sharon and Pam, my heart goes out to you and your entire family.

Dearest Gilmore Family - I'm so very sorry for your loss. I haven't seen you Pam, Sharon and Mike in years but my Son, Shawn Baxter called me yesterday to say of your loss and that he was on his way to see you all. Please know you are in my prayers. God is the God of comfort. Much love, Ellen Lina

Dear Dot, I pray the Lord will heal the pain in your heart and replace it with wonderful memories. I had forgotten that Mickie's birthday was the same as mine, just a different year. My year is 1933.
I have made it to the reunions so far, but it is getting harder to travel. Maybe next time I am in Pensacola things may line up, so we will be able to meet and visit. God Bless you,

Thanks everyone. My uncle Mickey was and will always be a special person in my life. He gave me the courage and assistance to open my
moving company along with my partner Sharon when I was twenty two. He treated me like a son, taught Sharon and I the ropes and scolded me when I needed to be. I am grateful for our family bond. His oldest daughter Sharon Gilmore Dorsch and I were partners for almost twenty five years. Aunt Dottie, Sharon Dorsch, Pam Plate, Rynn Gilmore, Michael Gilmore my...

A wonderful man ho gave me more in life than I could ever repay. I will forever be grateful for the time and love he invested in me. My heart bleeds for Aunt Dottie, Sharon Dorsch, Pam, Rynn Gilmore. Mike along with my mother, Mary Dot and Aunt Millie. I play for healing and Gods comfort for all. While he was my uncle this week I lost a father. I love him more than I knew how to show. I love you Uncle Mickey!

My heart is saddened by the loss of Uncle Mickey! What I can recall, of cherished family memories, he was such a kind hearted, loving and precious being! A true family man! My sincere condolences go out to my Aunt Dottie and the rest of his family! I feel your pain....however, it will become easier to cope with, in time, when you have your "FAITH" and know he is in a better place and will always be by your side! Much love to you all, during this difficult time! xx
