I will miss Gordon so much. We have been friends for eight years or so. He sent me cards and called often. We had just talked the night before and I told him not to over load on turkey or football the next day and we made lunch plans for the following week. Gordon always had a beautiful smile and a caring heart. We discussed religion a lot and I have no doubt he is walking the streets of heaven and petting all the animals. The worlds loss was heavens gain. I will see you on the other side my friend!

Gordon was great man. I only knew him for a year but it was plenty of time as it felt like we knew each other forever. We shared plenty of times laughing and having good conversations. He was a great man and he will definitely be missed.

My sweet little brother......Why did you have to leave us so soon? This shouldn't have happened. I miss you so much. If I can only give you a hug right now. I'm going to miss your crazy sense of humor and how you could make me laugh at all the silly things you came up with. I didn't know that you had just taken in a couple of stray dogs, bought them collars and food and made them a cozy little sleep area on your front porch with some of your blankets and pillows. But that was the kind of person your were. You loved animals and always had a little pet around. This is so hard for us. I'm comforted in the fact that I know you loved Jesus and will be in His loving arms in Heaven.
