I remember Uncle Gilbert to be a strong and charismatic man with a powerful voice and a gentle spirit. I am grateful to him as he offered loving words of support to me when I lost my parents. You will be greatly missed Tio. Love always, Carol

The entire staff at Baldwin Fairchild would like to extend their deepest sympathy during this difficult time.

Always a pleasant, charming man. Wonderful father & husband, Grandfather. So sad he is no longer here. Heaven has a new Angel.

You will always live in our hearts and prayers.

Gilbert was my uncle, my godfather and my dad's best friend. I could still remember the nights listening to my dad and uncle Gilbert play chess, talk and talk and drink their whisky as obviously it was past bedtime. I also remember as I got older, uncle Gilbert would always give me a dollar when he left our home and as I still got older he was in fact more strict about what I wore to go out with friends than my father was. His homes were always welcoming and comfy and his meals were great. Still remember the French dressing. I was always so proud of my uncle and dad working as executives in Manhattan and I can truly say they were an inspiration in my life. He was an elegant MAN with a lot of pride. Although the years passed and the distance was there I always remembered him fondly and with great respect. I love you tio and I hope you and my dad are together now watching over all of us. God Bless. Marà­a Teresa

I have fond memories of my uncle Gilbert.  He was a strong and proud man, who loved his family. My heart and prayers go out to all of you.  May you rest in peace, Tio.  
With love,
Diana

To my Tio Gilbert,
 I have memories of when you scolded me for moving out one summer and leaving Marujita. Your heart was always in the right place. That's what I love about you too. May you rest now.
Always in my heart,
Angelita

I've been so blessed to have a grandfather that has always loved me unconditionally. Your steely demeanor and tough exterior faded away whenever my sister and I walked into the room. The way your face lit up when you saw us is the picture of you I will always hold in my heart. The way you always tried to force feed us cake and cookies when my mom wasn't looking is something that will always make me smile. I will never forget the memories we've shared and I will miss you dearly. I love you, Grandpa. Always, Chelsea.

Gilbert- I'll always remember the first time we met was also my first date with Nancy, your daughter. Although we chatted a short while, my initial impression was how honest, proud and direct a man you were. Getting to know you the next 30 years you were exactly that. I can honestly say in many ways you inspired me by your confidence and integrity. I respect you and will miss you tremendously. Rich

Sorry to hear of your loss of good Husband, Father and a decent man that I got to know very well. I enjoyed listening to your many stories of your life and family with your brothers throughout the years. Even though I haven't seen you in recent years you were always on my mind and I'm glad I spoke with you and hearing your voice on the phone gave me a good feeling just talking to you about old times. You have always been very polite and I will miss you. Love Bud

To my wonderful Uncle Gilbert, who has always been welcoming and inviting and who has given me many wonderful memories of summers in New York, at the beach and of happy holidays together. I always looked forward to seeing you and your debonair smile. For all the years our family spent together, all the love and the laughter and good times we all shared, I will forever be blessed for having a loving and caring uncle. I will greatly miss you and think of you always. God bless you always and keep you by His side. Love, your niece Christina

My dad was tenacious, imposing, lovable, courageous, at times ornery and impossible...like all humans he was imperfect. And I love him for all that and more. He will live in my heart forever, never to be forgotten, always to be remembered with overwhelming love and joy because he was and is "my dad". A man who lived his life with integrity and great pride in who he was and where he came from. I love you daddy.  Always and forever, Nancy
