CONDOLENCES (GuestBook)

The memories I will always have is Robert chasing me around the driveway with the little mop he used to wash his car with when I was little. Playing Jarts, and Badminton in the back yard. Going To Bradley Airport with him teaching me the DC-9's, 707's, and 727's taking off. Going to the observation deck and having jet wash blowing on us as planes taxied out of the terminal. Going for rides up to the Mohawk trail and having his car overheat. Since we grew up next door to each other, EVERY Christmas, going to my Memere and Pepere's, and then downstairs to Visit Uncle Henry, Auntie Yvette, Elaine, and Robert. Robert ALWAYS got to play with my toys before I did! Every time I got a cool racetrack set, I had to wait til Robert and my dad were done playing with it. EVERY new years day Going to his mom and dads for dinner. I grew up my whole childhood with Robert next door. At night I would be out in the back Yard with John Ashe and Robert with them teaching me the stars and constellation. Every Epiphany We would gather at John and Mary Ashe's House with Fr Mathew Ashe sometimes to Celebrate. EVERY time someone went on Vacation we would have to go over and watch slide on the projector. I would wait for Robert to come back from Holy Apostles Seminary because he would bring his friends and that would sit on the back porch. I learned so much sitting at the feet of those young men. Your First Mass which i had the honor of serving, and your Silver anniversary which i had the honor of serving. You were ther for every Sacrament that anyone in the family received. I was raised in a very tight knit french Canadian atmosphere of Family and St Joseph's parish. I will always thank and remember my family for bringing me up never having feeling I was not loved. Robert you were a part of that and I thank you. Now that you are with my grandparents and your parent's probably throwing balls to Rex, Snoopy, Smokey, Levi, sitting round a table, i can still hear your laugh. Now that you have left the confines of this earth, I feel Joyous for you. To be with God in Pure Love is something that I cannot even conceive. The sorrow I feel is the loss I have, that another small part of my life is gone. "In all things come as a servant" That is you, If I can be half the person you were on this earth, I know that Jesus will welcome me, and bring me to the Father. I will miss you, and hopefully with Gods Good Grace we will meet again. I Love You Michael R Gilsinger
