I don't recall where mile and meet but I do remember us working like crazy to keep his little Ford pinto running. We both worked at spring service on truck suspensions in our younger days. Most times we left that place looking like we just crawled out of a coal mine. Mike was always the energizer bunny in the crowd. He was ready at a seconds notice . Ready for whatever ,didn't matter.iam glad you had your family and closest friend marvin by you in your final days. Rest in peace brother.
Rhonda, so sorry for your loss....you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers
Connie, Jeff, Adam and Lily Foster 🙏🏼
Around 54 years ago, I watched a lady and a boy about my age come through a field of broom straw to my house. It was Marlene and Mike Gilbert. That was the day that me and my life time friend started our life time odyssey. Mike was a very intelligent guy that could do almost anything that he set HIS mind to. He was a very caring man, but as hard headed as a MULE. Finesse was not his main strength, if a hammer didn’t work, then get a bigger hammer. His moto, it will come bleed or blister. He could be like a bull in a china shop. His love for cars and turning wrenches was impeccable. I will miss him dearly, but so many memories. Rest in peace my brother. Marvin
We will miss you neighbor Mike!!!!
Along time ago a friend took abunch of us to a foghat concert. We all had a great time, except when we was leaving mike sat up front with me and my boyfriend and he started getting sick. I told him to hang his head out the window.. That was a great night and lots of memories. Rip mike until we met again. Your gone to soon.
