Gordon Budke

I'll miss Gordon, he was a great boss and mentor for me. Heartfelt condolances to Rhoda and the kids.

I am overwhelmed with grief and sadness and at the same time honored to have worked beside him in various capacities and to call him friend. He was my hero, my mentor and friend. I will miss our annual coffee dates. Rest in peace Gordon. May God bless you. My heart goes out to his beautiful wife Rhoda and family as they navigate this devastating loss.

Memory Eternal Gordon. My thoughts are with Rhoda and your beautiful family. You were my mentor when I was with Junior Achievement. I will always cherish your words of wisdom, and kindness. Your legacy will be remembered as a leader and Spokane will be talking about your good deeds forever. I will welcome the day we meet again As Always Suzie Jankovich´ Seefried

I remember serving on many civic committees with Gordon. My condolences to the Budke family.

Robert Frost 1874 - 1963 Nature´s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf´s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay.

In 1957, Gordon joined our little band and learned to play the old, stand-up, three-string Base. We were known as "The Four Squires". L-R; Standing: Bill Johnson, Gordon Budke, Chuck Nelson, (Sitting:) Jack Thompson
