Not sure what to say?

I had the utmost respect for Mr. Gordon. He was a superior attorney and a better person. Truly a great loss to both the profession and the community. Rest in peace. Judge Nicholas Midey

I was very sorry to learn of Dick's death and apologize for not attending the services. Unfortunately, I didn't learn of his death until yesterday.
I had the good fortune of having practiced law with Dick. He was an outstanding lawyer,but more importantly, a great human being. He had a fabulous sense of humor and an amazing spirit. I don't remember every seeing him without a smile on his face, even after he started having his medical issues. In fact I don't think I ever heard him...

I worked on the same floor as Mr. Gordon's office. He was always happy and joking around regardless of any pain he was in. He was a very dedicated, hard-working man -- always on a mission to get his work done! A funny and caring man that will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences.

A fine gentleman; always kind to young lawyers and very patient with people in distress. He was an attribute to the profession and a model of what we should all aspire to. William Brennan

Dick was one of my favorite patients, as I was his physical therapist. He would just stop by to say hello & keep updated with everyone. He was a truly unique & genuine individual who always made people smile not wanting to complain or let anyone see the pain he was sometimes in. I will miss his visits and as he always says" Let's go Syracuse!" Loved Him!!

My association with Richard over the many years was most enjoyable, both personally as well as professionally. Simply put, Dick was the epitome of a gentleman, the ultimate lawyer, and a wonderful man. I will miss him!

Sincere condolences .. a good long time relationship with both Carole and Dick

Stephen, David and Nancy: my thoughts are with you all. I spent a lot of time with Aunt Carole and Uncle Dick while growing up. He was the best!

Your dad always held a special place in my heart. I have very fond memories of him taking me skiing whem I was in high school. He was always so warm and loving. I will miss him a lot.
Lori (your cousin)
