Gilbert McGraw Obituary
Bob was a proud Veteran of the United States National Guard. He worked at Whirlpool for over 44 years. He enjoyed catfishing with his boys, watching old Westerns, and his weekly dates to Golden Corral with his wife, Geri. In his younger years, he loved rabbit hunting with his brother-in-law, Mike. Bob was outgoing and knew no stranger. Above all, his family was his pride and joy.
Bob is survived by his wife Geraldine "Geri" McGraw and sons Robert (Leslie) McGraw and Ricky McGraw; grandson Chris McGraw; siblings Carolyn McGraw, Dennis McGraw, Gary McGraw, and Diana Durand.
Bob was preceded in death by his parents and siblings Sharon Bowman, Kay Veselovec, Daryl McGraw, Charles McGraw, and Ricky McGraw.
Visitation will be from 10am until the time of service at 12pm on Thursday, February 29, 2024 at Sunset Funeral Home with a burial to directly follow at Sunset Memorial Park.

Bob was one of favorite friend and customer of my dad's. He was always funny and kind. I'm so sad to have to say goodbye ...for now. Thank you for being a good friend to my dad and a very loyal customer, even though you felt like family! Just incase nobody knows, Bob was VERY particular about his hair!! It was fun to watch!
Geri I'm so sorry for your loss!! I do have photos but will have to dig them up. Love and prayers to whole family,

I remember when he took me squirrel hunting. He showed me how to shoot a shotgun safely. Of course I shot the shotgun and ended up on my butt. Bobby thought it was pretty funny, I didn´t at the time. But looking back [lessen learned.] it´s good memory that I never forgot.
