Dale M. Gordon

April 14, 1935 — September 15, 2020

Dale Gordon, age 85, of Princeton, Kansas, passed away on Tuesday, September 15, 2020, at the Olathe Medical Center in Olathe, Kansas.

He was born on April 14, 1935, in Harris, Kansas, the son of Ray and Evelyn (Mitchell) Gordon. Dale graduated from Garnett High School in 1951. He joined the United States Army on February 4, 1958 and served until November 4, 1962.

Dale was united in marriage to Renate Werle on January 6, 1961. This union was blessed with six children.

He worked at Red Hunt Rock Quarry in Harris, Kansas; Dwight Hayworth Rock Quarry; 25 years for Fogle Quarry, finishing his career with Martin Marietta Rock Quarry.

Dale was known for his humor. He loved the outdoors, including camping and grilling. His greatest joy was his wife and family. Dale’s Saint Bernard, Maggie, was his best friend. His daughter, Cindy, was his caregiver after the passing of his wife, Renate. Dad always joked about having a twin sister, who was born on the same day and year, Loretta Lynn. (some of his humor coming out.)

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Renate Gordon on July 4, 2017; and grandson, Jessie Ray Gordon; and one brother, Donald Gordon.

Dale is survived by three sons, Arnold Gordon and step-daughter, Mandy of Princeton, Kansas; David Gordon and wife Melinda of Galena, Kansas; Eric Gordon and wife Liz of Princeton, Kansas; three daughters, twin daughters, Cindy Sanchez of Princeton and Sylvia Morales and husband Lorenzo of Ottawa; Dirana Velez of Princeton; 11 grandchildren, 27 great grandchildren, and five great-great grandchildren; and extended family members.

Funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m., on Wednesday, September 23, 2020, at Feuerborn Family Funeral Service Chapel in Garnett, with burial following at Garnett Cemetery. The family will meet friends on Tuesday evening from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the funeral home.
