My condolences to the family. Little Gilbert (PEACOCK) as everyone called you back then,i remember the times we would go to your place almost every weekend to visit. We were young then, our dads would go HUNTING, we would play in the yard and sand box, in the house by the river. We got pellet guns and we would shoot everything we could.we had a lot of fun years together. Hunting with our Dads when we got older. Miss you LITTLE BROTHER. Till we meet again. - Posted by: Doug Dauphinais (friends ) on: Apr 12, 2020

In school Gill was the strong quiet type, I first met him in grade 7 and liked him right away. We liked the same things, cars, bikes, anything mechanical. After high-school I lost touch with him, but thankfully got to know him again when our kids were in school and other activities together. He was a good family man, and a good friend, the kind of guy who would stop on his way home from work to help you push your car out of a snowdrift. Miss you Gill, until we meet again. - Posted by: Phil Fleury (School Friend) on: Nov 24, 2014
