Gordon B. Unwin was born in Tiger, Colorado, in 1929, and passed away
in Kingman, Arizona April 11, 2018.

Gordon is survived by his wife, Lorry; his sons, Tom (Lindi), Michael
(Donna), and Gabe (Melani); daughter Deb (Ron); grandchildren and
great-grandchildren. He also leaves behind their “sons of the heart”
in India and Lebanon.

Gordon led a robust and full life as a past Master of his Masonic
Lodge in Muskegon, Michigan, a successful licensed general contractor,
PADI SCUBA instructor, associate faculty at MCC, and an exceptionally
talented artist whose work sold internationally.

Gordon’s touch is visible throughout Chloride. From the schoolhouse he
constructed in Cyanide Springs in the center of town to the beautiful
home he built for Mountain Nancy, and the one-of-a-kind tables that
fill the Yesterdays Restaurant dining room. The unique and now
landmark retirement home made of straw bales that he built for himself
and Lorry is the most photographed private residence in Chloride.

Gordon Unwin was an all-around-good-guy who had a zest for life and
loved traveling the world. He will be fondly remembered by all who
knew him and dearly missed by all who loved him.
