I spent a lot of time at the Gordon residence during my high school years, where there was never a lack of fun, laughter, and frivolity in abundance. All the family holds a special place in my heart, and Becky's memory will always be cherished. My sincere condolences to all her family. Larry & Rhonda Davis Findlay, Ohio
