Obituary For Jerry James Gordon, Sr.
“Let not your heart be troubled, ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions if it were not so I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And I go and prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you unto myself: there-where I am, there ye may be also.” John 14: 1-3

Jerry, I never met you. All I know is that Viv aka Tighty Ighty loved you. That was good enough for me. You read about husband and wives passing right after each other. I never ever thought that I would know a couple that it actually happened to. HE is waiting with open arms to receive you, and Viv is standing right beside him. RIH
