Tim Gilbertson, a resident of San Leon Texas, passed away, on March 19, 2025.

Tim was born October 21, 1966, the son of Louis and Mildred Gilbertson.

Tim was a passionate motorcycle enthusiast who found joy and freedom on the open road. His love of riding not only brought him happiness but also forged deep connections with many fellow riders and friends throughout his life. Tim cherished the experiences that travel afforded him, embracing the beauty and diversity of the world around him.

Those who knew Tim knew him as a passionate fisherman, spending countless hours on the bayou, casting lines and enjoying the serenity of nature. His easy-going spirit and love for life will be greatly missed by family, friends, and everyone who had the pleasure of sharing a fishing trip with him.

He was a true music lover, never missing a chance to catch a concert or jam out to his favorite band, the Grateful Dead. For him, music was more than just a hobby; it was a way of life that brought joy and connection to everyone around him.

Tim’s love for food went beyond mere enjoyment; it was a way for him to connect with family and friends, creating memories over shared meals and laughter.

 He will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by his wife Virgie Gilbertson; two stepchildren, Donald (DJ) Goodwin Jr. and Courtney Goodwin; two sisters, Cheryl Bair and her husband Tim, and Angela Gilbertson Collier and husband Jeff; six nieces and nephews, Laryssa Collier, Gabrielle Collier, Spencer Collier, Matthew Schultz and wife Jessica, Phillip Schultz, and Isaiah Schultz; three grandchildren, Bre’Lee Goodwin, Nevaeh Thoune, and Karley Thoune

Tim was preceded in death by his parents Louis and Mildred Gilbertson; one sister, Mylinda Schultz and one brother-in-law Keith Schultz.

A memorial visitation will be held Saturday, March 29, 2025, at Twin City Funeral Home from 2:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m.
