ANDRE GORDON Obituary

In Memory of Andre DeCarl Gordon. Andre joined the world on August 21, 1965, in Monroe, LA. At a early age, Andre showed athletic prowess, and at Wheaton Central High School, he joined the football team and received several awards. But, also he found wrestling and left a permanent mark in history, when in 1983, he won sixth place in the state wrestling tourney! After high school, Andre held various positions in the Chicagoland area, but a major highlight came in 2002, when he landed a role in the movie "Old School". Soon after, he moved southeast to Jacksonville, FL, in 2004. He loved the sun, the beach, and the warmth of Florida. Where on, April 27, 2015 Andre concluded his time with us and went on to Heaven. A Memorial Service to Celebrate the Life of Andre will be held Saturday, May 30th, starting at 10 AM at Second Baptist Church, 1520 Avery Ave., Wheaton, IL 60187.

Teddy Bear,

I remember when you guys came to Monroe over the summer when you all were little. We had so much fun. Wish we could step back in time when everyone was alive and well.
