Gordon (Gordy) Robert Oseth, loving husband, father, and grandfather
to many left this world on Saturday, March 2, 2019 to be in the
comfort of our Heavenly Father. Gordy was born Oct. 22, 1943 to Martin
and Louise (Schutz) Oseth in Caledonia, Minnesota.

He was the youngest of six children. After graduating from high
school, he went on to serve in the U.S. Navy from 1961 until 1965. He
eventually found his way to Alaska where he worked for AT&T/Alascom
Telecommunications. He married Linda Sue Oseth on Aug. 29, 1987 in
Fairbanks, Alaska where they resided until retirement in 2001. They
then moved to Lake Havasu City to thaw.

Gordy's passion was singing. He loved to sing karaoke and shared his
talent for many years calling square dancing, mainly in Alaska and in
Arizona. He was the club caller for the Snowshoe Shufflers, Santa's,
and Nugget Squares in Fairbanks, Alaska, the Buffalo Squares in Delta
Junction, Alaska and later the London Bridge Squares in Lake Havasu
City, Arizona from 2002 to 2019. He also enjoyed country dancing with
his wife Linda and traveling and visiting family and friends
throughout the United States.

Though he is gone, his love and memory will forever be with us. He is
survived by his loving wife Linda, their children, Tania (Jeffrey)
Skinner, Jeffrey (Holly) Oseth, Nathan (Wendy) Oseth, Tyson Oseth, Bob
Livingston, Scott Livingston, Carol Driver and Denise (Gary) Brunelle
and grandchildren Ashley, Sara, Lauren, Tiffany, Brittany, Amber,
Rachelle, Josh, Derek, Kristin, Noah, Wyatt, Natosha, Daelin, Raechel,
Prudence, Karen, Diana, John, Melanie and Anthony as well as many
other great(s)-grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother
Donald (Laurel) Oseth, sister Janet (Ed) Ballou and many friends.
Gordy was preceded in death by his parents Martin & Louise Oseth,
brothers Floyd, Glen and Roger, granddaughter Solitaire and great-
grandson Lukas.

A celebration of life in memory of Gordy will be held in the spring of
2020 in Lake Havasu City.
