Gilbert was a lifelong resident of Socorro and also owned a home in Albuquerque with his son, Nicholas. He was a loving father, grandfather, brother, and friend.

When, he was younger he enjoyed riding horses with his brother and sister. Gilbert loved to ride bikes and dreamed of one day owning his own Harley. He was recently rebuilding a dirt bike, and although some tasks must stay unfinished we know that his love for his family and friends will remain with us forever.
