Dear Gordy
I miss you! I miss when you would agree with me, when you expanded my knowledge and when you gently said I was off base. May the better place you are in cocoon you in love, including from those you have left behind. Thanks, friend. Liz

I have many good memories of Gordy from our time together at Tosa East, especially on the track team. He was courageous, and will be missed.
