The family will receive visitors at Infinity Funeral Home Monday, November 9 from 9:30 am – 10:30 am. A private memorial service will follow, due to COVID restrictions.

What can I say but "thank you Brother Doctor." I have the distinction of being the "other Gilbert Mason" patient of his and being treated by him was always a fulfilling experience. My greatest regret is that he and I never had the opportunity to take in live performances of our mutual favorite jazz artists.
