Gilbert Kahele (May 15, 1942 – January 26, 2016) was an American politician and a Democratic member of the Hawaii Senate from January 16, 2011, representing District 1.
He was appointed by Governor Neil Abercrombie to fill the vacancy caused by the appointment of Russell S. Kokubun as Hawaii Commissioner of Agriculture.
Kahele attended Hilo High School, played on the Vikings football team, and graduated in 1960.
Kahele served in the United States Marine Corps for four years in the engineering troop responsible for refrigeration.
After the military, Kahele graduated with an Associate degree in Science in 1967 from Oakland City College in Oakland, California.
Kahele moved back to Hawaiʻi where he began a civil service career that would last 33 years.
He got a job with the Federal Government at Naval Station Wahiawa as a refrigeration mechanic.
He married United Airlines stewardess Linda Haggberg in October 1971, and the couple lived in Wahiawa.
In 1976, the couple moved to Hilo.
They had two children, Kai and Noelani.
For the next 25 years, Gil drove from Hilo on Saddle Road to his job at the Pohakuloa Training Area, from which he retired in 2000 as the Director of Public Works.
Governor Neil Abercrombie selected Kahele to represent Senate District Two on Hawaiʻi Island after Senator Russell S. Kokubun resigned his seat to take a position in Abercrombie's cabinet in January 2011.

Kahele was born in a grass shack in Kalihi, just south of the Hawaiian fishing village of Miloliʻi in South Kona.
