Not sure what to say?

Gordy was one of a kind. He touched the lives of many people in a positive and enduring way. He is one of those people who made my life richer and left an enduring impact to this day. I know he is missed by so many of us.

I still think of Gordy often and miss him a great deal

Gordy- Like Peg, I think of you whenever i watch the weather on the news. So often I know that you would have a more accurate forecast and I miss having the chance to talk with you about it. I visited your farm home twice and really enjoyed hiking around it with you. Rest in peace, love brother Jim

You are in my thoughts every day, Gord, as I check the daily weather reports, watch space ships landing in outer space, connect with your family (virtually, during this worldwide COVID pandemic), watch Lauren go off to school on my Frameo device, enjoy the NC gardening seasons, remember the beauty of snowy Michigan winters, and ponder life after death. Love you to pieces, my little bro!

Gordon is still missed.....one of the most wonderful guys I have ever had the privilege of knowing...I think of him often...God bless his family

I first met Gordy in 1989 at the Hanscom AFB Weather Program Office. He and I started the VSAT program and traveled all over the world briefing MAJCOMs, performing site surveys, etc. I will never forget his great sense of humor and to date wonder if he was serious or just pulling our leg. For example, during a business trip to Hawaii, we were given a tour of the PACAF Headquarter's Building, which is an impressive historic building. The interior has dozens of modern offices for many PACAF...

I met Gordy when we were both in 6th grade in Amerman Elementary School in Northville. He was sweet and funny and a good friend to me. We used to exchange little "love notes". I anticipated arriving at school to find a surprise in my desk from him. I always looked up to see if he was sitting in the balcony at First Presbyterian church in Lansing on Sunday mornings when I was singing in the choir. He escorted me to the Junior and Senior proms. He was funny and sweet. I will miss him in...

I was so fortunate to work with Gordy in my years at Hanscom ; although my time at Hanscom was relatively short, I feel I have known Gordy all my life. That is the way he made everyone feel. When I first started at the Weather office he put me at ease and welcomed me. Gordy was more than a co-worker, he was a friend. I will never forget how he made work a pleasurable experience and how he made others laugh. I will never forget how he opened up his home for the annual picnic. I will never...
