Never met Gordon, but were mutual members of the AAPA and he often complimented us on our inclusions in the bundles. And had a mutual friend of our son Richard's Chas Greenlee of Nebraska. The AAPA will miss Gordon.

What a nice tribute to your father! I had no idea he had served with the Marines in WW II. No wonder he was so tough! What a wonderful, life he had, and such a long, happy marriage. As I said before, I think he lead as great a life as anyone could ask for. I guess we always wish for a little longer though, and I know you will miss him terribly. I will be thinking of your family as you say good-bye to a much-loved father and husband.
