One of his greatest pleasures was flying his airplane. He held his pilot's license for 41 years and flew all over the US for business and fun trips with family and friends. He also loved to downhill ski, play golf and play tennis. He was a frequent visitor to Las Vegas and loved to try his hand at the crap tables.
Gordon spent the last 8 years of his life living at The Lutheran Home in Wauwatosa and then at The Congregational Home in Brookfield. Thank you to the staff at The Lutheran Home and The Congregational Home for the excellent care of our loved one.
