Ivan was born on April 16th, 1933, the son of the late Ralph Gilbert and the late Verlie Kenney Gilbert of Bishopton, Quebec. He will be greatly missed by his sisters Thelma (Ronald Westman) and Verna (Marcel Cotnoir) and his many nieces and nephews. Ivan was predeceased by another treasured sister Marion (Stanley Downes) of Troy, New Hampshire.
