Not sure what to say?

Dear Karen, Lorena and Kimbell family;
Please accept our deepest sympathies. Do not hesitate to call on us if we can assist you in any way.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

My deepest condolences for your loss. I knew Mike back in the early days of Swinger/AI and he was always there for me no matter what the unreasonable demand and timeframe that was asked of him. I'll always remember what a sweet and kind disposition he had with a ready smile - the world of AI was definitely a much better place with him in it. When I made my decision to move to Canada, he told me of taking a train ride across Canada to visit Halifax....unfortunately, I have not gotten to do...

Mike, I always appreciated your warm greeting and smile every morning as I went to get coffee...you always made me smile, Thanks. To Mike's family, my thoughts are with you during this difficult time.

Though I only knew Mike for a short time, I will remember him for a lifetime. He was always there to make us laugh, wether it be by his quarky sense of humor or showing us the greatest things ever like pancakes in a can. :) Thanks for making us smile Mike.

There are not enough words to express how much Mike will be missed. He really is the person we all should strive to be. A smile for everyone, didn't matter who, a friend to everyone, never a cross word or curse against all our stange requests of him.

I worked with Mike for 5 years. He was an amazing Graphic Designer,a master at his craft. We worked on the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics together. Always respectful and patient at the most busy times. Everyone should have a Mike Gilbert at their company.

Mike always did so many things for so many people and never expected anything in return. He touched everyone he knew in such a special way that I can safely say that Mike was truly one of a kind. He'll always be in our hearts!

When my uncle Mick (Warren) passed away I cried. When I heard about Mike, I wept again. I never knew him very well except for the Gilbert family reunions. Mike was always very quiet compared to us rowdy Gilberts playing poker, drinking beer, and laughing and joking. I am the owner of the Gilbert poker chips - and the next time I play we will all have a toast to a good friend.
