She is still being missed. She was my editor and she was an excellent editor. Because of her, I received all A's in grad school.

I am deeply hurt on learning of the passing of Ms. Gordon, She was the best typist I have ever known. She was dedicated and loving. She will truly be missed by me and many others.

Dear Vicki and Mrs. Gordon:
I can't tell you how devastated I was to learn of Alberta's sudden passing.
We had just started communicating again via email since our annual Christmas card. I will truly miss her!
We went to the Police Academy together and then to Area 4. Our first day on the street was together in December 1967. She was a great asset to the Department and a wonderful, protective friend for these many years.
I am hoping to obtain a ride to the services as I had shoulder replacement surgery and cannot drive. If I cannot, please know that I will be there in spirit and offering you my deepest sympathy.
