Patricia '(Pat)' Gilbertson

Gilbertson, Patricia (Pat) age 77 of Orono, previously Maple Plain, passed away peacefully June 29th, preceded in death by her son, Tom and parents Edward and Frances Laubach. Survived by loving husband, Bob, daughters, Shelly (Thorn and Lulu), Kim (Ken, Ross and Bailey Gildow); sons, Mike (Gretchen, Olivia, Anna and Tucker), Jeff (Grace, Kate and Helen) and Tim (Yolanda, Ani and Casiano) and many loving relatives and friends. Pat's heart was selfless and her love for her children and grandchildren knew no bounds. She was direct in her communication; no one had to guess at what Pat thought of a given situation or person, and quick with a smile or laugh. Pat also loved reading, spending time with her grandchildren, and celebrating Christmas and St. Patrick's Day to the hilt. A special thanks to the wonderful caregivers at Trails of Orono. Memorial Mass July 16, at 4:00 pm with visitation 1 hour prior to service at Catholic Church of St. George, 133 N. Brown Rd. Long Lake. Rettinger Funeral Home Long Lake - Orono 952-473-6954
