I will always remember you by the man that loved his bright colors, and loved his rings. I know that you're in a much better place now. I am so thankful to have you as a Grandpa. Your such an amazing man! I love you Grandpa.

May looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow."

Grandpa Gordy was the type of man that could brighten anyone's day. His family meant the world to him. He was such a strong man. I loved going to see him and he would tell me the funniest stories. I love you Grandpa. I will never forget your smiling face.
