GORDON: Lawrence B. Gordon, age 89, died peacefully on October 19, 2018, at his home in Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. He was born January 14, 1929, in Pittsburgh to Alfred and Bertha (Goldberg) Gordon. After graduating from Shady Side Academy, he attended Washington & Jefferson College. Larry was an investment adviser/stockbroker for the Pittsburgh firm of Parker/Hunter, where he made lifelong friendships with many of his clients. He was an early supporter and coach of youth hockey in the Pittsburgh area, and the longtime treasurer of the Pittsburgh Amateur Hockey League (East) and the Churchill Area High School hockey team. Larry was an avid golfer and bridge player, and a dedicated student of both activities. He is survived by his beloved wife of 58 years, Sara, his sons Alan (Linda), and Michael (Darcy); and he was “Bop” to his grandchildren: Benjamin (Felicia) Gordon, Beth Gordon, David Gordon, Rebecca Gordon, and Dora Gordon. He is also survived by his sister Rita (Paul) Glosser, with whom he was especially close, and by numerous nieces and nephews. Funeral services were private. The Gordon family would like to extend their gratitude to his wonderful caregivers, and to the Trustbridge Hospice Foundation. Memorials may be made in Larry’s name to the Trustbridge Hospice Foundation, 5300 East Avenue, West Palm Beach, FL 33407. “Hey Bop, I’ll see ya.”
