My heart is broken and full of sorrow. Gordon was the best stepdad anyone could ask for. When he married my mom she treated us as his own daughters. He was more of a father to me and my sister then our father was. Mom I’m so sorry you lost the love of your life. Gordon I love you and miss you so much. I’m so glad that you were in my life. You will forever be in my heart.
