Gordon C. Geldof

Gordy was my salesman at Ehinger Shoes and again at VanHoecks. I believe I was one of his first customers at Ehingers, as Mr. Ehinger was keeping a close eye on him and assisting him with fittings and suggestions. He always knew me by name. I will miss him. My condolences to his family.

My husband Robert Boschelli worked with Gordon for many years at Ehinger Shoes in Grand Rapids. We cherished his friendship, and marvelous talents. He was so artistic.

Gordie was such a nice man. Met him at Van Hoek's where I could get my "skinny" shoes. He got to know me so well, I could call him on the phone and he could mail me what I needed, sight unseen, and it always worked. But, more fun in person. He took care of me for almost 20 years. He was always "dressed for success"-very stylish. I know he is keeping everyone in style in heaven! My condolences to his family.

I remember him so well from the downtown store. What a lovely man! He had impeccable taste and always told you what he thought. He was tremendous. I always asked for him.

I have fond memories working with Gordy at Van Hoeck's back in the 80's. His dry sense of humor and wit always kept me laughing. And what a fine dresser he was!! He was kind and caring. He knew the high fashion shoe business and his clients so well that if he told his customer to buy something they did. Though he wasn't very good at directions as one time driving back from a buying trip in Chicago we ended up in Kalamazoo rather than Grand Rapids. We had to ask for directions to Grand...

Ginny,
