Gilbert M. Lannoye

1939-2022

Gilbert M. Lannoye, 83, of Kenosha (Somers) passed away on Friday October 14, 2022, at Froedtert South-Pleasant Prairie Hospital.

Gilbert was born on March 2, 1939, in Racine, the son of the late Vernon and Joan (Madsen) Lannoye. He was educated in the schools of Waukegan and Kenosha. Gilbert was employed as a Machinist for OMC/Johnson Motors for 35 years. He served in the U.S. Army from 1962-1964, with a tour of duty in Korea.

Gilbert was an avid reader and very talented at drawing. He also had a great sense of humor, especially with puns, and had a keen interest in politics. He loved woodworking and refurbishing his house and helped family and friends with that talent. He was always there to help, for whatever was needed.

Survivors include his brothers, James Lannoye, Timmy Lannoye and Terry Lannoye, all of Pleasant Prairie, as well as his sisters, Cheri Lannoye and Lucinda Lannoye, both of Pleasant Prairie. He also survived by a nephew, Justin (Shereen) Lannoye; great niece, Sophia Lannoye; great nephew, Joaquin Lannoye; aunt, Betty Madsen; thirty-four cousins and many friends.

Gilbert was preceded in death by his parents; his brother, Daniel; his nephew, Joseph Lannoye; cousins, Michael Lannoye and Dennis Sanders, and many aunts and uncles.

Robert Nielsen, Sandor Marianyi, and Jonathan and Krystal Jecevicus were his guardian angels, who teamed up with his family, neighbors, and caregivers, Paula and Gay, to help make it possible for Gilbert to stay in his own home. He greatly appreciated the help, and his family is forever grateful.

A celebration of life will be held at Fireside Restaurant in Kenosha on Sunday November 6, 2022, from 2:00PM-6:00PM.
