  Notes	Patrick "Pat" A. Gilbertson, 58, of Schofield, passed away unexpectedly at his home of natural causes on Friday, May 1, 2015. He was born April 12, 1957 in Wausau to Dellar "Del" and Jeanette "Jan" (Empey) Gilbertson. He was a 1975 graduate of Wausau West High School. After graduation, Pat started his career at the former Wausau Insurance Company and was with them from 1976 to 1992, serving as an Office Planning Technician, during which time he was promoted to a supervisory position. He worked with the home office, as well as all regional and service offices, and worked closely with regional vice presidents and human resource managers. He traveled throughout the country, assisting office planning designers with the actual physical moving of regional and service offices, by directing local moving companies and vendors. In 1993, Pat decided to change occupations and was employed as a courier with FedEx Express, working with that company until 2009. In late 2009, he took on a new role and was employed at K-Tech Kleening Systems as a Building Services Crew Supervisor, and was chosen by management as "Employee of the Year" in 2012. On August 5, 2014, he was offered a position as department manager at the Ace Hardware Store on Schofield Avenue, Weston, and was currently employed by them until his untimely death. Pat will be fondly remembered for his very kind heart and loving affection for his family and friends. He was quick-witted and had an extraordinary sense of humor. It was evident in his home décor that he was truly a gifted and talented artist, celebrating nature and the southwest culture. He was a very loving son, brother, father and grandfather, and his family meant more to him than anything else in the world. Pat was also a loyal and dedicated fan of the Green Bay Packers and Wisconsin Badgers, and was diligent in flying their flags on game day. He will sincerely be missed by so many who loved him.
