Not sure what to say?

Gordon did not know me, a wannabe announcer , and a graduate of
LHS Class '50...but I certainly knew who he was as I listened to him
every day on WCAP. I finally realized my dream and began my 50+
years broadcasting career in 1958, after graduating from Emerson
College. I'm still in the profession via NPR in Baltimore, hosting a
weekly big band program. I'm convinced Gordon would enjoy my
program. I know I enjoyed listening to him. So long to a...

I'm also one of the Kelleher kids with lots of memories of Gordon, walking in the door with his booming voice. He obviously loved spending time with my parents, and they all showed us what it means to have, and be, a loyal friend. God rest his soul. -Anne (Kelleher) Hayes

GORDON WAS MY FRIEND. FROM MY EARLIEST MEMORIES HE WAS AROUND THE HOUSE. PLAYING BASEBALL AT KIRWINS, RIDING THE TRAIN TO CURRY; MUSIC SESSIONS; PATRIOT GAMES; TRIPS. IT WON'T BE LONG TIL WE MEET AGAIN. JACKIE KELLEHER

My prayers are with Gordon. I am happy that he is free of his Parkinson's now. We Kelleher kids have known Gordon our entire lives. He was always so cheerful and happy to see us when he came visiting. We will remember how much he loved the "old" music - sitting with my dad and mom listening and enjoying records. Also, all the Patriots games he went to with my dad, travelling by bus, dressed for the freezing cold. Then if they were watching games from their homes, the phone would ring...
