Gordon Todd Carey, son of Reta Golden, was born November 8, 1958 at Ogallala, Nebraska. He attended High School in Fort Morgan, Colorado.

On February 14, 1987 he was united in marriage to Kelly Van Vleet and to this union two children were born, Benjamin Todd and Kaytlin Shae.

Gordon worked in the oil fields most of his life. Before retiring he was a driver for Cash Wa Distributing. He enjoyed his houseplants and cacti collection and couldn’t wait to show off any new blooms.

Gordon was a loving father who was very proud to attend his son’s wedding in October and was nervous about a future father-daughter wedding dance with his daughter Kaytlin. He was looking forward to being a grandpa someday and was looking forward to his 25th wedding anniversary coming in February.
