Gordon Jay Harrison

Lisa and family, I just watched your story on Extreme Makeover. What an inspiration Gordon was, as well as your entire family. Finding this obituary made me cry for you all. I´d love to know what all of you are doing these 7 years later. If you get this, and wish to, you could reply and let me know. God bless each of you.

GORDON I WAS FORUNATE TO KNOW YOU FOR A SHORT TIME AND IT MADE ME WISH I HAD HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE YOUR AQUAINTANCE MUCH SOONER. WHAT A GREAT MAN AND EXAMPLE. YOU HAVE BEEN GONE NEARLY 16 YEARS BUT YOU ARE THOUGHT OF EVERYDAY BY THOSE WHO LOVE YOU

Dear Lisa,Chase,Ben and Claire,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have been impressed by your family and your willingness to help and love those around you. I pray that the prayers of those who know and love you will lift and sustain you today and always. In the difficult days ahead I know that a greater portion of the Spirit will be there to bring you peace and comfort.
I regret that I was not able to be mentored by Gordon, however, my life has been touched by his legacy of love....

Lisa and family
We are so sorry to hear about Gordon's passing. We will miss his upbeat and energetic attitude! He was a great guy! If there is anything we can do for you please let us know. We are all deeply saddened, but realize at least he is in a better place free from pain.

Lisa, and Harrison Family
I am so very sorry for your loss. I only knew Brother Harrison by my family. We used to live near you and my dad and him were great friends. I was just with Gordon two weeks ago collecting money for kids with cancer, and he had a bright smile on his face. He wanted me to tell my dad about a lesson he gave "The Word of Wisdome" Everytime i've seen him he had a great big smile on his face, and still does this very day. Brother Harrison was such an upbeat man and...

Lisa,

I was so sorry to hear of Gordon's passing. I have always admired your strength and courage. Both you and Gordon were always upbeat and so willing to help out anyone in need. I know you have a lot of support from family and friends. Please take care of yourself. You will always be in my thoughts.

Lisa And Family,
I attended the funeral on Monday of a very special person. I hired Gordon at the Howard Johnson Hotel and never regretted it fo a second. Gordon was a consamate professional with the guests and
his co-workers. He was always on time and when I would frequently lecture the other guest service workers about punctuality I would refer to Gordons ethic.
Anyway I wanted to express my gratitude for the short time Gordon was part of my life.

Lisa --

Patsy and the whole family join me in expressing our love and gratitude to you and your children. How we loved Gordon and his infectious smile. We will long remember the reunion you put together for all of us and the former 3rd Ward family. That event was so typical of Gordon, who always thought about making others' lives more enjoyable in the moment. He lived well, and though we prayed that he had dodged a bullet while he was in remission, we are secure in the knowledge...

Dear Lisa,
I was just made aware of your husband Gordon's death today and was so sorry to get the news. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
I remember meeting and chatting with you in the LDS Hospital about four years ago while we were both in the waiting room. We were waiting for news of our nephew after a liver transplalnt and you were there for Gordon. Because we were there under similar circumstances, I've often thought about how your husband was...
