To the Macias Family, My deepest condolences for your lost. Gilbert was my Friend. We became friends as young teens, hanging out on 10th St. in Sierra Vista, but lost touch after we all got married or moved away. I always considered Gilbert a good friend and my heart hurts, we never seen each other offen enough to say Hello and shake hands. I will truly miss Gilbert. Emma and boys, Gilbert is in good hands now, Heaven awaits him. I know the LOVE of all your family and friends will bring you comfort during this difficult time. God Bless.
