Mildred Gilbert

Mildred A. Gilbert, 92, of Bradenton, formerly of St. Petersburg, died Aug. 31.

Mrs. Gilbert came to Florida from Long Island, N.Y., in 1965, and moved to Bradenton two years ago after living in New Port Richey and St. Petersburg. She grew up in Queens, N.Y., and worked at Grumman Aircraft during World War II. After retirement, she and her husband were members of the U.S. Coast Guard Flotilla 716 in Gulfport and the Czechoslovakian-American Hall.

Services were Sept. 4 in Largo. Memorial contributions may be made to Tidewell Hospice, 3355 26th St. W., Bradenton FL 34205. There is an online guestbook at www.davidcgross.com.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 53 years, Charles F., and her first husband, John M. Young, who was killed during World War II while serving in the U.S. Navy. She is survived by son Roy and his wife Kathy; daughter Gail Straight and her husband Ed of Bradenton Beach; six grand children; and 10 great-grandchildren.
