Paula and family: I'm so sorry for your loss. Gordon was kind enough to allow me to work for him while I was in high school. I'll never forget the positive experiences I had while working in the almond and walnut orchards and at the ranch. I have always had a great respect for Gordon. He was a kind and generous man. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I use to shuttle Gordan back & forth when he would drop off his vehicle @ Don Mccullough Dodge. We had such great conversation. I have not seen him in a few years, but I never forgot him. Such a pleasent gentleman. My sympathy to all who loved him.
