Gilbert Duddles Obituary

After a full life, Gilbert Duddles is on the journey to join family and friends who predeceased him. Gilbert was born in Ogema, Wisconsin, and died in Winter Springs, Florida. He is survived by his wife of sixty-six years, JoAnn. Also, by his elder brother, Don. Gilbert had five children, thirteen grandchildren, and many great-grandchildren. As a military veteran, he considered his time in the U.S. Army and Air Force to be a privilege, explaining he got to see interesting places in our country. After moving to Florida in the 1980's, Gilbert worked as an engineer. His hobbies included being a commercial pilot, traveling, and photography. There will be no service in Florida, but family and friends will celebrate his life in Wisconsin this summer, on a date to be determined.
