Dear Joyce and Family,



What a wonderful obituary written about Gordon. I'll always remember him for his genuine and gentle manner. Joyce, you reminded me of the fun bike ride we went on together in VT and I have many more fond memories from visiting you in CA, CT and FL. Boy, you two sure got around!! Gordon is happy and now free from his illness. May God comfort each of you during this difficult time. My prayers and Love to you...Susan
