Bruce and family, I am saddened to hear of your father's passing. Your parents were very warm and welcoming to me each time I visited your home as well as when they stopped in at Best. You have been blessed through your life with wonderful parents. I would encourage each of you to cling to the wonderful memories you have of times spent together. Take care.

Families of Gordon Kesler,
Most of you won't know me, infact, only Bruce and Penny's family would. I've grown up with Kourtni and I know about her wonderful family. I can't say I know how you feel and I don't even know what to say but I know that he is looking down at you all with God and wanting you to be strong. Gordon was a strong man, I was told, and you should just show him that you are as strong as he was not by forgetting him but forgiving God for taking him at an unexpected time. God Bless.

Dear Evadeen and family,
In this time of great sorrow, I hope you can take comfort that Gordon touched so many lives with his genuine spirit. Always with a smile, always kind. His special friendship with our Dad, Paul, was one that Dad treasured above others, and Gordon will always be remembered with great affection and respect.
