Gordon P. Sanders age 62 of Wayne passed away on Saturday September 21, 2013 at the Hackensack University Medical Center after a courageous battle with Cancer.
Gordon was born in Paterson but was a lifelong resident of Wayne, NJ. He was a Master Carpenter and owned his own business for many years. Growing up, Gordon was interested and excelled in Athletics while he was in High School. He was the place kicker for his High School football team and was also a High School regional Finalist in wrestling. As he got older his athletic interests turned to golf, which he became quite good at.
Following his High School graduation, Gordon attended East Carolina University where he furthered his education and also played Lacrosse for the varsity team there. After about three years, Gordon left college to help his father who had taken ill, run his business. This is where Gordon learned the trade that he would devote to for the rest of his life. Then in the early 1980’s, Gordon started his own business, and on one of
Gordon’s job sites, he met his wife Cindy, whom he cherished over 26 years together. During those years Gordon and Cindy raised their only son Maxwell.
Gordon was a very hard-working man and had little tolerance for shoddy craftsmanship, which may have made him a bit stubborn at times, but he was a perfectionist. He took pride in his work and was always there to lend a helping hand when someone needed it. Above his devotion to his work, and above his love for Athletics, Gordon held his family most sacred. Nothing came between Gordon and his love for his family.
Gordon is survived by his wife Cindy (nee Gray) of Wayne; his only son Maxwell of Wayne; his mother Marion Sanders of Wayne, one brother James and his wife Christine of Export, PA; and three sisters Barbara Hanenberg and her husband Alan of Wanaque, Jean Sanders of Wayne and Katie Sanders of Pompton Lakes; his is also survived by many nieces and nephews; he was pre-deceased by his father James R Sanders in 1997.
The family has asked that if loved ones want to make a donation in Gordon’s name, please consider the American Cancer Society.
