Tributes

Lee & Jean Romero

Gilbert, you were and always will be like a brother to both Pat and I. I being the youngest of the three Talpa Musketeers always looked up to you to defend me from the older, Pat. We stirred up a lot of dust around the ground area of the basketball pole. You built a legacy of memories too numerous to write in words but will stay with me and everyone that had the privilege of knowing you. You and your beautiful wife, Cecilia, raised a remarkable family demonstrating exemplary traits of moral values and compassions. Jean and I dearly love your three siblings and their families wishing them our condolences, assuring our devotion to sustaining the love of family forever.
