Gordon was born in 1942 to Charlie and Elizabeth Keeble.
He served in the United States Army and was deployed to serve in combat in Vietnam in 1964.
He is survived by his wife, Cindy Keeble, and their two children, Don Keeble of La Verne California, and Denise Howie of Rancho Cucamonga, California. He was a loving, caring, and proud grandfather to his six grandchildren and great grandfather to four great grandchildren. He was a long-time resident of West Covina, California, and he and his wife relocated to Grants Pass, Oregon, in 2006.
He was saved by grace and began his faithful walk with Jesus in 1993. His greatest joy was growing in his relationship with Jesus, studying his word daily, teaching others in small group studies, and greeting children on Sunday mornings at River Valley Church. Anyone who ever had the privilege of knowing Gordon will always remember his most treasured words, “Know the Lord and stay close to Him.”
