I was sitting at his side with his large hands like paws on the bed in Davies Hospital, only a few blocks from his house but weeks of persuasion to get him there.
I just had the chance to read this, right after my daughter's teacher said that she felt like I was lecturing her because I was expressing my concern for her promoting a candy exchange during a class party, which is a horrible way to reward a child. But all I did was give her reasons why it was a bad idea and she just got defensive and rude about it but ensured me that she would change the plan. So, feeling very let down by her and then reading this really brought me back to life and made me realize that I did a great thing and that her teacher doesn't matter. You made me love Gordon too. Your love for him and the choices you make in this story are such intentional, life enhancing moments. I feel so happy now. Thanks for writing <3

Gorgeous Margo, what a tribute, thank you for keeping this spirit in motion
Thank you, Kristin! ❤️
Margo, Your beautiful remembrance of Gordon brought me to tears. What a lovely being he was.
Thank you - he truly was, and remembering all those times you were there as well (Italy, Mexico, San Francisco), what a beautiful time that was. ❤️
What a heart warming story! Knowing Gordon a little I feel like I missed a lot…you captured him beautifully ! Thank you!
