We express our heartfelt sympathy to Ben (Son of Senator Gordon) and his family. We are neighbors of Ben. It is rare for neighbors in today's society to even know each other's names. Ben's father would be so proud of his son and we believe he rarely went a day without telling Ben that. Our memories of meeting Ben's Dad are of him coming to visit his son and taking long "father/son" walks together. This was not rare, but frequent and appeared to be quite meaningful. The loss of your Dad is so profound that words rarely express or comfort. We pray Ben will know that his Dad continues to walk with him (even around the block) his Dad's spirit will never dissolve, depart, nor desert him. And in quiet moments Ben will find comfort in the truths that loss gives those who grief, with hope. Warmest Sympathies to Ben and his family. Chris, Debi & Philip
