Souvenirs

Charles (Chuck) Gordon, 64, passed away unexpectedly on 12/11/2020. Chuck was born in Owatonna, MN to Calvin and Hannah Gordon. He grew up with Fritz (brother) and Lois (sister). As a teen, he loved spending his time swimming competitively and making music. As he got older, he attended Anoka Hennepin Technical College to study Engineering CAD Technology. This sparked his passion for CAD design, along with his love for chocolate and coffee. Chuck was also very active in the music scene his entire life. He played the bass guitar in many bands where he made lifetime friends while providing entertainment for so many. Chuck had two children, Steven (son) and Jodi (daughter). As a family they loved camping, fishing, and visiting state parks. Being a kind and dependable father was of the utmost importance to Chuck and he certainly did not disappoint when it came to wholeheartedly loving his family. Chuck also really enjoyed coaching in all the different sports his children participated in. Chuck is survived by his children, Steven (Jessica) and Jodi (Cody), also by his six grandchildren, Jordan, Jaylen, Kya, Wesley, Trevor, and Hannah. He was preceded in passing by his parents, Calvin and Hannah, his brother Fritz, and his sister Lois. The funeral/memorial service will be announced at a later date and held in the Spring/Summer of 2021.

Chuck was a member of my team at Buhler. With 41+ years at the company, he was full of history and perspective and wisdom. Everyone went to Chuck for information about past projects, especially in the Chocolate business. When we'd come across a photo of "really old" equipment still running great at a customer's plant, Chuck would say: "I remember that project.":) One colleague shared that Chuck "needed to work really hard to get angry about anything." He really didn't get worked up about much, taking the long view that things would work out. And they usually did. We miss Chuck, and I certainly appreciate all he did to help his coworkers and show me the ropes. Rest in peace, Chuck.
