It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the passing of Gordon Goodwin, who died peacefully on the afternoon of December 8 following complications from pancreatic cancer. Gordon’s passing leaves an immeasurable void in the lives of his family, friends, and all who cherished him. His gentle spirit, remarkable brilliance, and incomparable kindness made him a beloved husband, son, father, and friend whose memory will forever be treasured.

In his final moments, Gordon was surrounded by those he loved dearly—his mother, Alice; his children, Madison, Garett, Trevor, and Garrison; his stepchildren, Levi and Aria; his closest friends; and his devoted wife, who remained by his side. Their presence brought comfort, warmth, and profound peace as they held him lovingly and reminded him again and again how deeply he was cherished. His passing, though heartbreaking, was filled with tenderness, gratitude, and the quiet beauty of a life surrounded by love.

Gordon was known for his exceptional character—brilliant yet humble, gentle yet strong, and endlessly kind. Those who knew him admired not only his intelligence and talent but also his unwavering generosity, compassion, and the sincerity with which he approached every relationship. He brought joy, light, and comfort to all who crossed his path, offering encouragement in difficult times and celebrating the triumphs of others with genuine warmth.

As a husband, he was deeply devoted—loving, supportive, and steadfast. As a father and stepfather, he was a source of guidance, strength, and pride, always encouraging his children and stepchildren to pursue their dreams. As a friend, he listened with empathy, laughed with sincerity, and stood by others with unwavering loyalty. His presence enriched the lives of many, and the emptiness left in his absence is felt deeply.

During this unimaginable time, Gordon’s family asks for continued prayers, support, and compassion as they navigate the profound grief of losing such an extraordinary person. Though life will never be the same without him, they take comfort in knowing that his final moments were peaceful and filled with love—a reflection of the life he lived so beautifully.

Gordon Goodwin will be missed beyond measure, and his legacy of love, kindness, and gentle strength will remain in the hearts of all who were blessed to know him. May he rest in eternal peace, and may his memory continue to bring comfort and inspiration.
