    Dear Family and Friends,

    My condolence for our loss of Uncle Gordon. He will be dearly missed. For Komi and I, he will especially be missed during those excellent Nickle family chinese luncheons. He was a lovely soul and I am very sad I will not be able to share anymore of his time in this world.

    Our loss is his gain, I know he saying hi to my mom, grandma, auntie Irene and all those dear him and us, and know that they will give him comfort in his new beginning.

    Komi and I wish we could be there with ya’ll but unfortunately it was not possible. Looking forward to seeing ya’ll another day.

    Bye uncle Gordon,
    Ken and Komi
