We will remember Gordon as a man of quiet strength, generosity, compassion, humaneness, and honesty. He was observant about life and took the time to reach out to others. We will miss you, Gordon. God be with you and your family.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
