After retiring from the Operating Engineers Gil was the Chief Flight Instructor for the Navy flying Club at Joint Base Lakehurst.  He was my flight instructor and friend. We spent many hours in the Navy Flyiing Club N8414L flying to $200 lunches while he explained the theory of flight to me.  Gil never gave up and finally I was a Private Pilot.  After that we would take destination flights in his Beech Baron. Those were great moments. Rest in peace good buddy.
