In 1989, Gilbert purchased Lucky Dollar Foods in Treherne and later renamed it Pittets Food Store. From then on he could be found behind the meat counter and always said a quick hello to anyone that came in to shop.

He was predeceased by his parents Raymond and Alice (nee Danis) Pittet.

Gilbert will be remembered for being a quiet, kind and funny man, always willing to lend a hand when needed. He was loved fiercely by his family and all who knew him. He will be deeply missed.
