It is with a very heavy heart that I write today. I am so very sorry for the loss of Gilbert. My sincere and deepest condolences to his family.
Our fathers were the greatest of friends. I entered first grade with Gilbert, and from the beginning he was there for me. Although we did not regularly see one another, I always knew that he was my friend.
Gilbert was a natural musician, a red hot banjo picker, and a Blue Grass purist.
May his memory be a blessing.
Mike, Selamawit & Isaac
