I must admit that I never knew Gordon directly but I do know the daughters he raised and feel the pain in their hearts and words regarding his loss. Gordon and I do have the shared experience of honorably serving our country through military service and from one serviceman to another; you will be missed but certainly not forgotten as your spirit continues to live on through all those who served with you! God Bless those who must continue their journey without you, especially Arden, her children, and their families. May they be filled with the Holy Spirit and guided through this time of mourning. Rest in Peace old friend.

Cindi,Evan,Melanie,Meghan & Nicholas, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad and Grandfather. Please accept my deepest sympathy. Sylvia Rider
I am so sorry to hear of Gordon’s passing. I was saddened to hear of his passing today. I worked closely with Gordon at Dresser (Ashcroft) for a good number of years. I knew Gordon as an innovative thinker. He was always looking for a better way of doing things, not content with the business as usual approach. When we were not having conversation about the job, the other topic was more times than not that of family and the grandchildren he spoke of with such affection. I will miss our chats. God bless and comfort his family. Gordon will surely be missed by many.
