Your loving wife

My dearest loving husband. Eleven years ago today we were with you when the hood lord called you home. Every day since then we have missed you, your love, kindness, thoughtfulness and caring ways. A piece of our hearts were taken as well. I miss you every day but I love you and always will. I know you watch over as we go on without you and hope you keep watch over our children that god blessed us with. You were and always be the best thing that ever happened in my life. Celebrate your eternal life with the angels until I can be with you again.

Dad it´s been 10 years today that you left us. I miss you every day. Our hearts were not ready but God had different plans for you. I talk to you throughout the days sometimes as I may hear a song or see something that reminds me of you! I will miss you always and forever until we meet again!
Love always your little girl,

Honey... another year and another piece of my heart broken. I dream about you but not often enough. Every holiday and birthday bring back memories of you. We all miss you and love you each and every day. Watch over us as you always did before and keep our children and grandchildren safe. All my love angel.

On this day 8 years ago I had to say goodbye. You were called home by the lord to rest. I remember that day as if it were today. The pain of living without you still as fresh as it was that day. You are missed and loved every day. Until the day comes when I am able to join you, the emptiness will continue. You were and always will be the greatest love of my life.

Happy Birthday Honey. Youll always be missed. You touched so many lives with your kindness. You were the best husband, father and grandfather anyone could ever hope for. I wish we could have had so much more time with you but the Lord had his own plans for you. We will love you and miss you forever my love.

dear maryann, dan and I were sorry to hear of gordys passing. I met him as we both went to ben frank school, he was a lot of fun. we have a lot of memories of gordy, he was always a gentleman, and when ever he talked about you he always smiled, told us stories about your baking ( I still have all the cookie recipes you gave me and like to use them at xmas time) I or we do not know of a time he ever spoke nasty about another person. when we were at your daughters wedding-he was so proud. please know we are thinking of you , try to take care of yourself. may god keep you close to him, helping you and your family at this time. if you ever want to talk or have coffee, were in the book. again dan and I are so sorry for your loss. Donna and Dan Kowal, Ton. NY

My Dear Husband,
I miss you so much Honey. Even though we were together for 44 years and 6 months I don't know how to go on without you. I hope God leads me towards the path to you soon so I can be with you once again. You will forever live in my heart. My love will never fade and I will never be the same until I can be with you again. I was truly blessed to have been loved by you. All my love forever and ever.

Maryann,
On behalf of our Scout Troop, please accept our sympathies for your loss. The boys were camping this weekend when Gary learned of Gordon's passing and let the adults and our Senior Patrol Leader know. Gary felt it best, and I agreed, that the boys be told after the camping trip. They are both fine Scouts and will be wonderful young men. I can see where they get it from.
In sympathy,
