"Gordie" to his friends, graduated from the University of Arizona College of Law in 1963, and was admitted to the State Bar of Arizona in Sept. 1963, practicing law in Phoenix, AZ for more than 50 years. He started his career as a litigator, but quickly shifted to representing clients in real estate transaction matters because he loved negotiating. His clients and opponents knew him to be a tough negotiator, but also a man who would get the deal done! He accumulated many accolades over his career, including being voted by his peers as one of The Best Lawyers in America 1995-2006, and Southwest Super Lawyer, The Top Lawyers Arizona and New Mexico 2010.
Gordie loved life. He was an avid golfer; winning a Certificate Of A Hole In One at Antelope Hills Golf Course South #15 on March 2014. He loved to deep sea fish with his law partners and friends in Mexico. His favorite sports teams were the UofA Basketball team and the Arizona Cardinals. He watched those games every chance he could. He loved to play Black Jack, hosting many a game night at his home. He also traveled extensively.
Most important to Gordon were his children and grandchildren, who brought him many hours of joy. Gordon is survived by his daughter, Erin Stiltner, and his son Brian Mohr and Brian's wife, Marilyn. Gordon will be missed by all five of his grandkids, Riki, Jeremy, Kelsey, Nicholas and Lexi. Gordon's wife, Kathy Lundquist Mohr, predeceased him in 2008. May they rest in peace together!

Gordon will be missed by us. We had so much fun with he and Cathy. He had such a great laugh which it was easy for him to do. Such a jolly soul. Sorry we could not attend the celebration of his life but know we were thinking of you all.

My condolences to Gordon's family. I was introduced to Gordon 35 years ago as the Bashas' Family of Stores real estate attorney. That was the beginning of a relationship I consider sacred. A brilliant real estate lawyer, tough negotiator, astute businessman coupled with a heart of gold. I'm so grateful to have had the privilege of learning from and working with Gordon for so many years. There will never be another Gordon Mohr. Rest in Peace GAM.
