Read MoreDave Bartran (my dad) and Forbes first met while working for the Texas Oil Company, dad play football at LSU, against Rice Univ. prior to WWIl.

Did not know Forbes passed away until today -- tried to call him and check on him - only to find his mobile number no longer good. I had a lot of respect for Forbes, and actually enjoyed our talks ---- you are missed.
Condolences to Forbes Gordon's family
