I had the privilege to work for Gordy at Clark Georgetown after moving from Clark Battle Creek. A Group of us ex Michiganders soon became great social friends enjoying new found Kentucky adventures, the races at Keenland, Kentucky Derby parties, and many Saturday evening card games. Gordy was a kind and caring individual both in the professional environment and well as from a personal perspective.

dear Laurie and family, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I met Gordie several times while you and I worked at the Scott Co. Library. He and you always had a smile for one another, and shared that joy to me. Really missed you both when you moved. God Bless you and your family.
