To Mrs. Conner, Ken, Dan and Lisa,
My deepest sympathy to all of you for your loss. I always thought of Mr. Conner as a second Dad. He will be missed. I always enjoyed looking up and seeing him watching our softball games and the passion he had for the game.

To the Conner family and friends,
I am so sorry to hear about Gilbert. I work at the bar where he shot pool with his buddies and he was one of my favorite people in the world. Im going to miss all of the stories he would tell me of my grandfather at the holiday house. He will be missed dearly. I wish the best for all of you.

So sorry to hear about Uncle Gil. He was a great uncle, and one of my favorites. I think all of the kids loved him. He acted just like us!! Still remember him making up games to play at Grandma Russo's to keep us from being bored! I hadn't seen him too often over the past few years, but I will certainly miss him.

Dear Aunt Clara, Kenny, Danny, Lisa and families: We were so very sorry to hear about Uncle Gil's passing. We had a lot of good times together over the years. From holiday gatherings to picnics to Communion parties to backyard wiffle ball games, there was never a shortage of laughter. I'll always remember Uncle Gil's passion for jazz and the Cincinnati Reds.
Our sympathies and prayers go out to you all.
