Lynn Asa Gordon

Dear Helen,

Daughn called this morning and told us of Lynn's passing. We are totally shocked and send our deepest condolences to you and the rest of his family. We will always remember Lynn as a genial and funny person with a great sense of humor and a good attitude towards life in general. Last summer at Lodi, he stopped by the camper to say hello and ended taking our garbage down to the dumpster -- but this was what Lynn was, always looking to help his neighbor.

He'll be...

Dear Helen,
We just learned of Lynn's passing last night from Ev & Ernie.
Please accept our deepest condolences. Lynn will always be remembered for his playing, singing, and wonderful sense of humor. We have often wondered how many people tried to plug into your electrical pole or the tap into the water supply.
Please let us know if we can be of any help or support to you, we are not that far away.
Know that you are in our prayers.
All our Love.

Hi again Helen - I saw such an outpouring of love for both of you today. I am privilaged to be a part of the day. Everything was absolutely perfect.....and what I truly wanted to say today, and perhaps this is a better time , is that I know you, just like others of us -- will find peace and a soothing of the soul -- right there on our Alder Beach. I am soo very sorry for your loss but know that few have the marriage that you did --and what wonderful memories you packed into those 18++...

This is how we remember Lynn...
With a sense of humor as big as his generous and loving heart. Alexandria will always remember him as her Uncle, who drove 'The Big Red Truck' with her Aunt Helen to see her every year, faithfully. She and we looked forward to when it started to cool down in Tucson, because that meant the 'Big Red Truck' would soon be rumbling down our road and we would soon see the gleam of our our desert sun reflecting off of Lynn's head (-: ... we love him so!!!! And,...

Dear Helen, We'll always treasure our memories of Lynn singing Whoa Mule & Y'all Come, sitting around the campfire and potluck suppers with Lynn cleaning up the scraps. We'll miss his imaginative solutions to problems and his great sense of humor.Love and Hugs-The Hammers

Dear Helen,

Our sincere sympathy, and I only wish we'd been home to be with you. Lynn was a fine neighbor, and we will miss him and his smile.
Rosemarie and Bob

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Dear Mrs. Gordon,

I am saddened by your loss. Your husband coached my friends, siblings and myself to a Sectional Swimming Championship in 1985. I can still remember his distinctive voice during practice and gym class. He will be missed by many.

You are in our prayers,

Steve Potter

Dear Helen,
Though it's been a long time since we've seen you both, we have always pictured you with a smile on your faces that reflected the happiness in your hearts. Although words can do little to help heal your grief, may it comfort you somewhat to know how many others share your loss. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
