Philip "Chris" Gildersleeve Jr.

I worked with Chris the last few years and all I remember is his smile, laughter and kindness. It was an honor and pleasure to meet his lovely daughter Sarah. They had such a great connection and relationship! He was a true fighter and proves that attitude and positive thoughts really does make a huge difference in life. He definitely taught me that. His entire family and friends have a angel looking over them. Perhaps they are not really stars in the sky but rather openings where our loved...

Having just learned of the passing of Chris, I have many fond memories of him; from playing sports in high school, attending Becker College , being frat brothers and being roommates for one year. As the years passed I enjoyed seeing him at our class reunions, remembering the good old days. We were good friends and kept in touch for 50+ years. Deepest sympathy to the family and I will keep Chris in my prayers.

I went to Portland High and Becker College with Chris. He was a good friend. He will be missed

My deepest sympathy and prayers to the Gildersleeve family for losing this great fighter. I enjoyed many rounds both with Chris and against him and many wins with him on my side! I'm sure he is teeing it up in heaven and missing Sarah as his caddy by his side. I'm sure he was happy that his sox won one more time for him! Prayers be with you he will be missed.

I am so sorry to learn of Mr. Gildersleeve passing away. I will always remember him as a great softball coach, and going to DQ for a treat after games! -Sarah Jozus Blandford

To Chris's entire family,
He was a true friend and wonderful person. I will always remember all the great times we had.

To the entire Gildersleeve Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Chris was a strong, sweet man.It was an honor to care for him. May all your memories bring you peace and comfort in the days ahead. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
