Default My Friend and HERO

He isnt an active member of TQ. But he is as important as any member it is

Gordon... Gordiesgirl (christina) husband.

He is her husband and hunting partner. She will tell you her self that gordon is a very important part of not just her personal life but her TQ life as well.

If any mortal man can be called my hero it is gordon. This man has faced such devastating adversity in such short time its amazing.

When i had my heart attack he and christina came to the hospital to see me. i knew he wasnt up to the trip but he came any way. i looked at gordon and he inspired me. i was not going to lay down and give up the fight.

he and i have talked seveal time sense then. we have been down simualr paths. i believe my hardest part is over. Gordon has another battle ahead of him this week.

in a couple days , on thursday, Gordon will be havin yet one more heart surgery. this is going to be ruff one. I know that the fighter he is he will pull through.

i ask that evey member please keep him in their prayers and hearts. Ask God to keep him safe and give him strength to get over this next hurdle quickly.


Gordon... We love ya and are wishin ya the absolute best. HAPPY HUNTIN MY FRIEND
