So sad to learn of the loss of our dear 8th grade teacher, Ken Gilbo.  The OLQM Class of 1968 remembers Ken well.  He had a big heart and put up with lot of adolescent antics.  In an era of rebelliousness, we respected him.  He was our football coach and brought a lot of passion to leading our team.  We learned a lot about playing as a team from Ken. He was also a talented math teacher.  I still remember his memory scheme for figuring out the angles of a right triangle -SOH - CAH - TOA.  With deepest sympathies to the Gilbo family

Mr. Gilbo, as we knew him in 8th grade, was a source of humor, wisdom and the drive to excel. He had a thankless job dealing with us at age 12 in an era when the world seemed as if it was coming unglued around us. I remember him with a smile 44 years later. Rest in peace Ken.

Ken was a our  8th grade football coach at OLQM and a dynamic character to say the least. He put up with a lot from us, and for that, we thank him.

Life is short, enjoy your loved ones while they are here.

So sad to hear of your loss.  My deepest sympathy to the Gilbo family.

We were so sad to hear of the passing of Ken.  As neighbors our family had the privilege of sharing many wonderful times with Pat and Ken and their family.  It saddens our hearts to know that a good kind man has left us. Our prayers are with his family at this time of sorrow.

It has been a pleasure knowing and working with Ken over the years. He provided us with great service, even when he was not feeling his best, always maintained a wonderful spirit. He will be missed. My prayers go out to the Gilbo family.

My condolences to the Gilbo Family; it was such sad news to hear of Kens passing.  The word "Spunk" comes to mind when describing him. He had such a joyful spirit and so much energy.  He was an inspiration to anyone who knew him; to never let life get you down no matter what it throws your way. He always had a smile on his face and something more on his to do list. He just kept plugging away.  His great laugh and smile will be sorely missed by all.

We were sad to hear of Ken's passing.  We remember sharing good times with Ken & Pat during our kids' time at Northeast High School.  Your family is in our thought and prayers.
