Charles Sanson wrote a sympathy message

“Sorry to learn of Gordons passing , He always had a great smile. No wonder, his mother and father were special also. I bucked bales out at the farm a couple of times, and shared a meal those times. Great memories. Sterling and Dorothy's grand kids I think broke a few hearts, pretty girls. I did wonder why Gordy had to go to Virden to find a girlfriend, but after seeing her picture and meeting her, he was pretty smart, no wonder I liked him.”
