I worked in a department that reported to Gordon at Principal Residential Mortgage. He was very nice to work for and was well respected. He was always professional, hard-working, and driven to succeed, yet possessed those old-fashioned qualities that are so important.. kindness, decency, and honor. I am glad I got to know Gordon. He was a good man. My sincere condolences to the family. I am sure you have many wonderful memories of him.

So sorry to hear about Mr. Jones' passing (that is what we called him).  I knew him when he was our next door neighbor when I was little (early 70s) in WDM on Marcourt Lane.  He was the one that came over to our home to take care of my brother and I when our father was taken to the hospital and passed away.  He always was so caring to us and helpful to our family when we lived next door.

Ruth, we are sorry we couldn't make the services for Wayne yesterday, but we want to  wish our condolences.
Love Dave and Bonnie

I am a close friend of Gordon's son, Mark. When I was younger, Gordon, his wife Carol, Mark, and I, would go on trips to Colorado. I felt like I was part of the family. Gordon always had a look like he cared about your well-being. He didn't always say this, but I knew that's what he was thinking. I will always look at him as a second-dad. I loved Gordon (and Carol), and will miss him dearly.

Mark,my deepest sympathies  to you yet know that you are not alone!I enjoyed spending time with Gordon and felt honored to call him ""friend""  I will always remember him with a smile,especially when he came to visit me in the hospital and the beautiful flowers he brought with him. He was lucky to have you for a son and I'm glad you were there in his final days/hrs.I look forward to seeing you on Sat.in Wales. Safe travels, Suzanne

I really enjoyed getting to know Gordon when we were both members of Sertoma Club in DSM.  I was sorry when he left as we enjoyed walking in the skywalk to meetings together.  He was a wonderful person and I want to extend my sincere sympathy to his family.  May peace be with you all.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to the family of a very very fine man. Gordon was my boss at Principal Residential Mortgage for about four years and he earned my respect as a person of honesty, integrity, excellent work ethic and all with a sense of humor.  I missed him greatly when he retired. 
I do hope in his retirement that his golf game improved-- ha !  Condolences to the family, Gordon will be missed.

To the family of Gordon Jones,

I want to convey my deepest sympathies to you for your loss. Gordon was one of the finest people with whom I have ever worked. He was a man of complete integrity, kindness and intelligence. I consider myself to be very fortunate to have spent the time with him that I did, and know that you, as his family, were even more blessed. 

May the memories of your time with him continue to bring you joy and celebration, even while your mourn the end of your time together here.

Ruth and family, I was so sorry to hear of the death of your husband, Gordon. Even though we didn't have a chance to get together once you moved back to Fort Collins, I thought of you every time I'd drive past Southridge wondering if you were home. I do know how devastating the death of a loved one is and our sympathies and condolences go out to you and your family at this difficult time.  Keep your memories close- it helps!

Gordon was my first leader at Principal Residential Mortgage, when I joined the firm in 1990. For the next five year, until he retired in 1995, he taught me so very much about the early days of mortgages, patience and persistence in the face of adversity, the value of caring professional relationships- and just how to be a better man and leader.

We stayed in touch after he retired and he always had a kind and encouraging word to share. Gordon was a man it was easy to respect, admire and learn from. I will remember him the rest of my days- and always with a smile and a thankful heart for the opportunity to have known him. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

We lost a wonderful man in Gordon.  Like Ken Loder, I too learned a great deal from Gordon.  One of the things I enjoyed the most about Gordon was his love of history.  What was great with Gordon was just because things were done a certain way in the past, it did not mean that was how they needed to be done today.  

My thoughts and prayers with all of Gordon's Family.

Dear Mark and family - our deepest sympathy is extended for the loss of your Dad.  Rick Lampkin is my brother and through family gatherings we had the privilege to know your Dad and Mom.  They were two of the nicest people and really did make you feel like they had been a friend forever.  Seeing your Dad's picture brings back so many memories - he hadn't changed a bit.  I'm sure today was difficult, but please know that others care and send you God's mercy.  A favorite quote, ""God gave us memories so that we might have roses in December.""  Treasure all the fond memories of your Dad.

Love,
Ann & Jim Williams, Washington, Iowa

Please accept my sincere condolences to the family of Gordon.  I have known him since he began work at Bankers Life, and we worked together in the Closing Division until he transferred to Underwriting in the late 50's.
He was a great guy, and won't be forgotten.

We will always have cherished memories of Gordon.  He had such a
 pleasant and caring nature for everyone.  We couldn't have had
 a nicer neighbor for all those years here.  
 

                Raymond and Ann Wilson, West Des Moines, Iowa

Gordon was always there when I needed advice during my time at Bankers Life and Principal.  I enjoyed listening to his tales about the good old days in the ""field"".  My condolences to his family and other friends.
