Born June 13, 1927 in Chicago, IL and passed away on May 21, 2011. He served in the US Army as an optometrist during the Korean War. Shortly after he moved his family to Tucson to pursue his life long career in real estate. This presented many opportunities for a variety of business ventures including Gordo's Bar, a Redi-Mix plant, creation of subdivisions in outlying Arizona areas and one of his favorites, farming and ranching. His personal adventures included a passion for boating, sailing, riding his Harley and watching his favorite Diamondbacks including knowing every statistic about every player. He is survived by his loving son Larry (Randi), daughter Cheryl, grandchildren and sister Pearl (Harry) Moskow. His extraordinary level of determination, integrity and love will be greatly missed and serve as his legacy.
