I never met or personally knew Ken, but was aware of his work via a friend and follower in Colorado ( I live in Florida) He captivated my interest immediately with his insight and sensitivity and I followed his newsletter. I hope he touched enough people that his work will never end. I salute your life Ken Gordon and mourn your loss. Your essence will live on.

Some thirty years ago Ken helped me beat back the big, bad bullies. Funny...when the dust settled, everyone walked away feeling like a winner. That was his special talent.

Ken had an unwavering moral compass that is so rare in political life these days. I'm proud he was my friend - it is a loss for Colorado and everyone who knew him.
