November 3, 1924 – December 2, 2018
Elsie May Gordon, 94, Sheridan, formerly of Home Place, passed away on Sunday morning, December 2, 2018 at Majestic Care of Sheridan.
For Elsie, there was nothing more important in her life than her family. She was fortunate enough to be able to stay at home and raise her children. As her children grew older and started to have families of their own, she was overjoyed to become a grandmother. This gave her the chance to do it all over again. Elsie loved being a part of their lives on a daily basis. You could say that she was kind of a homebody, and that was just fine with her. She was quite content taking care of her husband, and keeping house.
When she carved out a little time for herself, Elsie liked to sit down with a good book, do a little knitting and arrange (and rearrange) her angel collection, along with whatever else ended up on her whatnot shelf.
Elsie is survived by her two sons, Sonny J. Gordon (Treena), Sheridan, and Johnny L. Gordon, Home Place; her daughter, Linda K. Milburn (Earl), Home Place; two grandchildren, Robert Eldridge (Brandy) and Matthew Eldridge (Sadie); and four great-grandchildren, Morgan, Lucas, Landon and Spencer Eldridge.
She was preceded in death by her sister, Edna Marie; and by her husband, Harold F. Gordon in 1985.
Private family services are being planned for a later date.
Elsie will be laid to rest at Carmel Cemetery.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Kercheval Funeral Home of Sheridan.
