Not sure what to say?

So sorry to hear of Gordon's passing! I know that if there is some elevator modernization work to be done in Heaven Gordon will get the contract for the consulting work. His honesty, integrity and just being a great guy is what has made the company he and Carolyn started the success ECS enjoys today. We will all miss Gordon you bet

Gordy was a true friend, always smiling with a twinkle in eyes. Marka and I cherish his friendship for all these past years. Our numerous camping experiences and floats on the Yakima river were always fun and accompanied with an ever burning campfire. We miss you Gordy.

John and Marka, Wenatchee WA

Special Memories

Dear Carolyn and family: I'm sure you remember how much help Gordon (and you, Carolyn) provided to me as I took over TriMet's elevator contracts. What a wonderful man, his smiling twinkling eyes even shine through in the newspaper photo. You two made a beautiful team, and I send my hugs and prayers for peace for the entire family.

A wonderful Man, Husband, Father and my Cousin Gordy has left this world to be with his Lord. His passing has left a void in so many lives; however, the memories we all share will be with us always.
My deepest sympathies and prayers are with you all.
