He had a passion for selling, riding and working on motorcycles and scooters. He brewed his own beer and was an exceptional cook.

Condolences to the Family

My mother was Gilbert’s school bus driver many years ago and he always had a special place in her heart.  She only recently learned of his death.  Our condolences to his family and friends.

My condolences to your family. I knew Gilbert only through TTRNO, and found him to be very sincere, caring, and a genuinely nice person. He was approachable, and always had a positive outlook on everything. I am so sorry to have read of his passing. I’ll think of him as I ride in joy on my Vespa, and know he helped me achieve that dream of owning my Vespa.

To Gilbert’s family, my sincerest condolences. It doesn’t seem real that he’s gone. I saw him two days before he died, and he was so excited about the next chapter in his life, in property management. I was fortunate enough to enjoy many conversations with him, and several motorcycle rides. He was always fun, smart, and entertaining. He had good stories to tell, and was a good listener when I had my own stories or issues. His motorcycles were unreasonably loud, customized in a manner befitting his personality, and he had the biggest smile when riding them. His absence will leave a big hole in our world. Godspeed, Gil!   -George Putnam, NOLA

Sincerest condolences to the Tellado family. Our family knew Gilbert from the many scooter-related events we attended and hosted over the past decade. Our family was in a different position than many because we had our children with us most in the earlier years. As our kids grew into young adults, whenever we saw Gilbert, he was always great with them and always had them laughing—and giving them pointers on how to be good riders. But we were also there when Gilbert flew his Vespa up a ramp through a ring of fire! That will always be one of our fondest and most exciting memories. No trip to “The Big Easy” was complete without stopping by the Transportation Revolution to say hello to Gilbert.The loss of Gilbert has made us very sad, but miniscule compared to the pain his family and closer friends are bearing. Rest in Peace, Gilbert.The Sanderson Family, Pensacola, Florida
