Where has the time gone, I cannot believe that your EOW is coming up, hard to believe that 16 years has almost passed. So much time, but never forgotten. You dad has always know when to send me something via email to bring my spirits back up, I bet you were just like him. Time does not heal the pain in our hearts, but we know that one day we will be reunited with our loved ones and when the time comes there will be a great party in heaven. Continue to rest in peace and watch over your family. HEROES are not forgotten, and you sir are a HERO.

Dearest Michael,
I miss your smile, your voice, your sense of humor, your charm, your way of making everything better... As each day passes not much changes... I still miss you...

Wishing you a Happy Easter. We have this Virus pandemic going on across the country and the world killing people. Two CPD Officers have died from it so far. Another holiday without you, no one will be here today with this sickness so maybe it will be a little easier without you this year. Every day we think about you and I wish I could have traded places with you. Love and miss you, Mom and Dad

Love,
Mom and Dad

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mike,

You are missed more then words could ever possibly say... Never forgotten.. Forever missed... There are no good-byes only love...

Miss you every day. There are no words to describe the emptiness in ones heart unless you experience the loss of a child. Your daughter has turned sweet 16 and your two sons are finishing college. The last 16 years have passed with family events where we have had your photo with us, especially the Cubs Rooftops for your foundation where all your friends are present remembering you. You will never be forgotten. Wanted to stop in and say I love and miss you.

Love,
Dad

Merry Christmas Mike. Your brothers left about an hour ago. You came up a number of times in stories that we passed on to your sons. It's so hard for me to sit and pretend I'm having a good time while my heart can never be the same with you gone. I left a blue strobe on all night so you could find us and be a part of our gathering. You will never be forgotten. Love Dad

Love,
Dad

Merry Christmas Mike,
Time keeps marching on but your absence is felt each and everyday. It’ll never get easier you will never be forgotten.

Dear Mike...I prayed for you at mass this morning...and because it is Veterans Day...I also want to say "thank you"...for your service in the Army.

God bless you...as you keep watching over your dear parents...your immediate...and extended family...who all love and miss you.

You are not forgotten!

With my prayers...

Gordon family, I'm a retired CPD Officer of two and a half years. Before my retirement, I was assigned to the 001st District/Bt. 105. Every day that I worked, I would physically walk and make my rounds through our memorial. I would greet Michael's photo, as well as all our fallen brothers and sisters, with kind words and a salute. I don't bring this up for recognition, but only to let you and so many other family members and friends know that the fallen are never forgotten.

Though I'd stop in and say hello. Not a day passes that I don't think about you. They say this process gets easier as life goes on, it has some but the past 15 years has taken it's toll. I miss you every day and wish I could have traded places with you so you could have spent the time with your children. Continue to keep watch over them and the rest of the family for me. Love and miss you

Love,
Dad

Dear Mike...They say better late than never...so although I missed the 15th Year Remembrance Day...I will be praying for you...and your family...at mass tomorrow.

Keep watching over your family...and rest peacefully...knowing you are loved and missed...by each of them.

God Bless You...

Officer Gordon, know that you are not forgotten, may you continue to rest in peace and continue your watch on the streets of gold. I bet you were just like your dad, he is such a good person and always knows when to send an email and what to say. Walk beside your children and parents as they continue without you, but remember you are forever in their thoughts and hear.

It pains me to know how you were taken from your family. I first heard of you when I took DUI lessons at the academy years ago. God bless you and your family. I hope that you and all the other fallen officers are watching over us, for its getting so much harder to do this job as each day passes.

Mike, It's been 15 years but to me it seems so much longer. A lot of things are different and the world is different. I don't think you would like it very much.
They had a memorial for you at the Police Academy yesterday that would have made you proud. Family, friends and the brass.
Love and miss you forever.

Mike, 15 years have passed and I know you will never be forgotten. They held a large memorial yesterday at the Academy in your honor. Over 100 Cadets were in formation along with senior brass and officers. Saw a number of your friends that you worked with also there showing support for us. You will never be forgotten. Please continue watching over the family for me and also your brothers and sisters in blue. Love you always. Dad

Love,
Dad

I cannot believe it is 15 years you are gone. You were a great jump out boy and one I was happy to supervise. I think about you often and wonder where you would have gone in the CPD

I cannot believe it is going to be 15 years tomorrow. I think of you, one of my jump out boys often. I remember getting the news and the shock I felt. Gone way too soon.

This past Sunday was our annual Cubs Rooftop Fundraiser for your Foundation. I know there are rain outs, well ours was a Snow Out with 5". There may have not been a game but the party went on. Your supporters were there celebrating with food and spirits. A number of people you worked with on the street were there. Even two people who knew you from the Army, one serving with you in Bosnia and the other from Ft. Bragg. Even though there was no game and the snow was like a blizzard, it was a big success. We love and miss you every day. Continue to keep watch on everyone for me.

Love,
Dad

Your son turned 20 today. So not fair that he grew up without you in his life. He is a clone of you and looks exactly like you. It will be 15 years in 4 months, but it seems like a lifetime since our last goodbye and me telling you to be safe out there and your answer would be "Always." Miss you ever day. Please keep watch over the family for me.

Love
Dad
