Dorothy “Gerry” Gordon, born January 24 1937, a lifelong resident of Charlestown, peacefully joined her angels in heaven on Friday, April 14, 2023. The love of her life, Walter “Butch” Gordon, her children Vikki Broussard, Stacy Broussard, Shawn Gordon, her daughter-in-law Kim Gordon, and her brother William Francis welcomed her home.
Gerry will be remembered for her quick-witted, sassy personality, and her fierce loyalty to those she cared most about. Although she endured many trials and tribulations throughout her lifetime, her door was always open to those with whom her loyalties lied. Her happiest memories were those in which she was on the arm of her loving husband, dressed to the nines, doing the things they loved, including spending holidays with their family and friends, going out to dinner on a Friday night, or going to the horse track.
She is survived by her brother Stephen Francis, her daughters Shannon Gordon and Stephanie McSharry, her grandchildren, Michael Macaluso, Tyler Tolis, Bryanna Gordon, Emily Gordon, Stevie and Tylar McSharry, and her great-grandchildren Victoria, Jackson, and Joshua Macaluso, and Jordan Butler. As per Gerry’s request, no funeral or memorial service will be held.
