Lucille,
I learned of Gordon's death as I browsed the internet. He and I shared many good times. He was a good friend and I am sure a good husband and father.

To Lucille, Gordie, Beth, and Amy. I am so sorry to hear about Gordie's passing. I can empathize with what you are going through right now. My mother always spoke highly of Gordie, admiring his sense of humor and ability to fix things. She loved to tell the story of how Gordie gave an excellent camera demonstration for her high school class at Mount St. Joseph's. My prayers are with you during this difficult time.
