D. H. Gordon

He leaves behind a hell of a lot of stuff to his 3 children who have no idea what to do with it. He leaves behind 8 grandchildren and the sugar industry, which he supported by pilfering Equal and Sweet n Low packets from any restaurant we visited. Dietary restrictions forced him to pass all sugary snacks not only to his grandchildren but other neighborhood children in order to piss off their parents. Lastly, he leaves behind a sea of friends who will now have to pay for their own beers.

Mr. Gordon enrolled in the Air Force where he quickly realized he didn’t like being bossed around and consequently spent the rest of his life as a spy. Mr. Gordon spent the majority of his time in Colorado teaching the Japanese language to many students at numerous colleges. He enjoyed traveling as much he could, dining out frequently and finding random strangers who spoke a different language other than English.

There will be a memorial service on Sunday, June 11, 2017 2-4pm where well-wishers are encouraged to tell a story that they had the privilege of experiencing in his honor. Memorial will take place at the Olinger Highland Funeral Home, 10201 Grant St., Thornton, Co.

He will truly be missed.

Arrangements under the direction of Olinger Highland Mortuary & Cemetery, Thornton, CO.
