Born on December 13,1941 in Arkadelphia, Arkansas to Charles Lee Gordon and Sadie Ree (Melugin) Gordon. Pops married his sweetheart Jackie (Williams) Gordon on September 14,1962 and had two sons, Kurt Gordon and Paul Gordon, from which he gained many grandchildren, great grandchildren, and even a few great great grandchildren. Some of which include Shaina (Corey) Myers and their three children, Sarina (Will) Matlock and their four children, and Chase Gordon.

His wife Jackie went to be with Jesus on November 21, 1982.

On August 15, 1986 he married Nancy (Jackson) Gordon and gained two step-children, Melissa (Dan) Parish and Jerry (Dajie) deBin along with several grandchildren including Amanda (Chris) Langley and great grandchildren. There are some great great grandchildren from both sides to be counted blessings as well.

Pops lived his passion career by being a truck driver from the 80s until he retired. Once he retired he enjoyed wood working and whittling for hobbies. He had a unique personality and will be missed.
