Very, Very sorry about Gordon.  He was a very special person.  He always had a way to make everyone feel equal and included.  We all miss him very much. We are sorry for the families great loss.

Thinking about you all and praying for peace during such a difficult time.  Losing a loved one is so very hard. Love the Woods familyx

I, too, worked with Gordon for many years at the Glendale Main Library and always looked forward to his mornings. He had the greatest stories ranging from his time in the military to an impromptu visit he made a few years ago to Luckenbach, Texas. He remembered every single person's name and made all of us feel special and memorable. What a very dear man.

I worked with Gordon for years at the library. He always had a smile and a joke for everyone. He loved jazz, and we always shared stories about our favorite bands and tunes. Gordon was one of the greatest guys I've ever known. My prayers are with his entire family.

My prayers are with you all.  Gordon always had a smile, a hug, and a witty comment for those of us who worked with him at the Glendale Public Library.  His gruff exterior masked a marshmallow heart of gold.

We just heard the news about our dear friend, Gordon.  Gordon was a special friend and volunteer to our library in Glendale, Arizona.  He spent many years working here and became a friend to the staff and fellow volunteers.  Please accept our deepest sympathy at this time.

From the Staff and Volunteers of the Glendale Public Library in Glendale, AZ

My thought and Prayers are with you now and always. Grandpa was a very special man and will be missed by all who came to know and love him. It breaks my heart to not be with you at this time...Love ya'll

Our Heartfelt Prayers and Sympathy at this diffult time.
