Gil was someone with many interests who always knew how to have a good time. He played basketball in college and later fell in love with golf. He loved to be up to date on current events and enjoyed discussing politics. He also loved watching comedy and action movies, pro-wrestling, and listening to music from the BeeGees, Paul Anka, and Abba. It would not be uncommon for him to be showing off his dance moves at weddings.

Gil was always a joy to be around and will be greatly missed. His family is proud of the life he has lived and will always be remembered for his humor, kindness, and faithfulness.
