    Having Gordon as a friend was a honor. He was one of the most genuine people I’d ever met and full of compassion for others. You could always rely on Gordon to lend a helping hand or offer his wise advice. To know him was to love him. Much love to Debbie and the family. I will surely miss my friend ❤️

    I am so very sorry to hear this. We went to school together from the first grade on. Our first band was formed with Gordon, Joel Williams, Ricky Lee and myself. We played hours and hours of different sports and games in the schoolyard at Easton. It was a great childhood in a very different time. God rest your soul old friend.

    It was an honor and privilege to know Gordon! He did love the outside and worked tirelessly to create an amazing environment. He told me one time that he felt that a home is inside and outside living. I love Gordon and will miss him. He was kind and generous to me and my family and so many others! Debbie and the whole family, you are in our prayers. ❤️
