Marjean and Family,
We are sorry to hear of Gordon's death. We know that he will be greatly missed. We enjoyed working with him in the district and saw the dedication he had for the employees.
I will never forget the love and care you had for me at the deaths of my parents. It was much appreciated. I would love to help you in anyway I could.

Dear, Marjean, Kyle & Family, Needless to say we are sad to hear of Gordon's passing. Our thoughts, especially during the night, over the last several days have been of the wonderful time we spent with our two family's three week trip to Europe in 1999. The memories of how much fun we had and the places and things we saw will stay with us for the rest of our lives. Something we will always cherish. Great times ! Gordon and his empty wallet for the possible pick pockets was a fun thing and shows us great memories of his humor. We will miss him especially for that !

So sorry to hear of Gordon's passing. We had no idea he was such a cowboy; that helps to explain his cheerfulness and the constant twinkle in his eye! Our deepest sympathy to Marjean and all the family.

Marjean,
Gordon will be deeply missed. He was one of the first to greet me when I came to the HOPE group after my husband passed and Gordon's laughter and straight forward advice made me feel at ease, welcome and supported. Helped me so much.
Love and condolences to you and your family.
