I will never forget him! He made a huge impact on my life and the lives of others.
He was the only teacher that put a face to his signature (using the "G"). His signature is what I will remember the most about him. Every time I seen his Mr. G or G'man signature, it always put a smile on my face. For me to smile takes quite a feat for most, but for Mr. G it was just simply creative effort. His loving creative effort was most definitely his strongest quality. Mr. G was a teacher that never gave up. He was always looking for a way to encourage and strengthen others. He was stern when he needed to be but always had a heart of gold and truly loved and cared for every student/person that he encountered. His aura emitted his deep passion for education, humor, and genuine love for all. The staff and students at Licking Elementary School were truly blessed to have had him in our lives. Mr. John Gordon left behind a glorious legacy to be cherished by all of the countless people that were graced to have known him and whom's lives he impacted.
