Lozano, Tommie V. Avila, Elena V. Lara; 22 grandchildren; and 36 Great grandchildren. His best friend was his loving pet Monroe.
Gilberto enjoyed being outdoors taking his morning walks, gardening and watering his plants. Mowing the lawn as often as possible and sitting outside enjoying the outdoors watching the cars drive by.
Gilberto had the best sense of humor, he was always joking around making you laugh. He was a hard working man and always provided for his family. He worked over 30 years at the Pearland Lumber Company. He enjoyed visits with family and friends talking about the good old days and his stories of Mexico. He loved working on cars with his sons. He also enjoyed listening to music especially to Vicente Fernandez, Ramon Ayala and Little Joe. He looked forward to watching WWE wrestling every Monday night, along with some of his favorites ”women wrestlers”. His family enjoyed spending the day watching the old cowboy movies with him as well. He will be dearly
missed and forever in our hearts.
