Gilbert A. Alvarez

Gabby was a dear friend of mine. I basically grew up with the Alvarez brothers. We had good time together. Gabby always had a smile on his face.

Dear Alvarez Family,

Please accept my deepest sympathies on the loss of your beloved. There are never any right words to express how deeply sad I am for the pain your family is enduring at this difficult time.

Although I did not have the honor and pleasure of knowing him, as Chair of the Senate Committee on Veteran Affairs and Military Installations, I am sincerely thankful for his valiant service in defense of our rights and freedom.

His commitment to family, friends, our community, and to serving our great nation leaves a wonderful legacy. May the love and the wonderful memories you shared with him help you when you need it most. He will never be forgotten, and your family will be remembered in my prayers.

May you Rest in Peace in our Lord Jesus's arms, Gibby. From your old childhood neighbor, Linda B Viera

My deepest condolences to Mary Lou, Lynn (Van, Brittaney, Christian and Mason) and Jay (and Kendra).. for we all love your dad/husband/Grandfather and will never forget him. Our prayers are with you and we know he's resting peacefully. God Bless.

Alfred Fuentes and family

My condolences to my cousins, to Mary Lou, Lynn , Jay. Growing up in San Antonio , Gibby was always a role model to me and influenced me to go into law enforcement. He once rode with me in Corpus Christi and we laughed with his sense of humor. But when we stopped some bad guys, he was all very professional.
I have missed him as all of you while here in Washington. Now he is with the Lord, Aunt Margie uncle Gilbert, Roger and Elaine and our sister Marie and Mom.
I am sorry I will not be able to attend but Esmeralda andi I will pray with you in celebrating his life. The memories of all my beloved cousins growing up with them is still like yesterday and I cherish you all.
Sam and Esmeralda Granato, Yakima, Wa.

The loss of our cousin leaves a heartache no one can heal.
The love and journey of his life with his immediate family leaves a beautiful memory that will last for an eternity. We too feel the loss of our cousin; our condolences to the Alvarez Family. We pray that God will comfort you during this time of sorrow on behalf of my brothers Alfonso and Richard Alvarez, my sister Belinda Alvarez Munoz and me, Rose Marie Alvarez Tarlton.

We share your sadness and ask the Lord to embrace you during this time. Gibby was a model to all of us in integrity and righteousness. We love you, Gibby.
