Gordon you will be missed by many especially your brothers and sisters. I had the privilage of visiting with all of them when they made their family get togethers at my fathers home in Van Dyne. When I would stop by they aways talked of how close they were as a family and shared many memorable times of past and present. the Ruedinger Legacy will always remain very special in the hearts of all of us. God Bless the family of Gordon Ruedinger.

I have known Gordon a long time, when he started dating my beloved Aunt Corky and later married her. He was always sweet to me and could be quite funny. We had a lot of good times together. He was part of my family and I shall miss him deeply.

I will remember Gordon for his love of striped cookies and always wanting a piece of gum to chew on. He was a wonderful person to get to know and he will be deeply missed. My sincerest sympathies to his family and loved ones during this time.
