I send my condolences to Rita and the family on Pauls passing. Although we were not in office at the same times, both Paul and Rita were always important people in Frederick. I always said that Paul put Frederick on the map literally as he worked for years to have the Maryland map include a side map of Frederick. Paul Gordon was Mr. Frederick and it was an honor to know and work with him.

Dear Rita and other family members,
Dayna and I had great respect for Paul. His love for his family, for Frederick County and for history stand out as particularly special. We enjoyed working with him on Frederick County's 250th Anniversary Events (the faith-based ones) during the late 1990's. May God grant you peace and comfort in your loss. Bert Lane
