He was born in Williamson, West Virginia to the late Carl Webb and Florence Simcox Webb. He graduated from Middlesboro High School in Kentucky and earned a bachelor's degree in finance from the University of Louisville.
Gordon was a devout Christian man. He was an active member of the Lebanon United Methodist Church where he played music during services, taught Sunday School classes, orchestrated several Bible studies, and was a Certified Lay Servant. Gordon was the most loving father, grandfather, uncle, and husband. He seemed to always have the right words and advice for every situation. Gordon had a passionate love for travel. He visited all 50 states, almost all Kentucky counties, and many foreign countries.
He started his career at Crucible Magnetics as a teenager cutting grass and worked his way up to Manager of Quality. Because of Gordon's passion for magnetics and his technical abilities, he became one of the leading minds in the global magnet manufacturing industry. This included giving presentations at industry conferences. Also, during his career, he held Senior Manager positions at other companies.
Gordon had such a passion for youth sports and teaching children that he was inducted into the Elizabethtown Area Baseball Commission (EABC) and Elizabethtown Youth Soccer Association (EYSA) Hall of Fame.
