I met Mr Gorlich as a patient in the hospital and although ill at the time he had the greatest sense of humor. Knowing that last name was familiar to me I reconnected with my classmate from high school, his son Wayne. Condolences Wayne and your family.

We send our condolences to the whole family, and know Weldon will be very missed. He brought much joy with his visits to see his cousin Joan and her husband Lee in New Jersey. The fun Joan and Weldon had growing up together when their mothers rented a summer beach house to share in Ocean Grove, NJ made memories never to be forgotten, and are still told at family gatherings.. May Uncle Weldon rest in peace.
