Here is the obituary for my dear friend Tank which will appear tomorrow in the Nashville paper, the Tennesean, the Louisville Courier-Journal, the Southern Standard (McMinnville) and the next day in the Glasgow Daily Times. There have been only a few men that I have really admired in my life - my precious late father, my late ex-husband Walt, the late Lewis Gorin and his brother Tank Gorin. They all made a great impact on my life and they are all missed. Of the living family members there are many that I admire greatly, but these four men made a real difference in my life. Standiford Rogers Gorin of McMinnville, TN, formerly of Louisville and Summer Shade KY, died Wednesday, January 31 at the age of 84. He was the son of the late Lewis Jefferson Gorin Sr and Standiford Danforth. He was many years retired from Genesco Corporation of Nashville, TN where he served as Director of Technical Research and Development. Following service in the U.S. Army in Europe during World War II, he was graduated from the University of Virginia. An avid spelunker and outdoors man, he was one of the founders in 1956 and part owner of Cumberland Caverns near McMinnville. On July 4, 1976, this country's Bicentennial, Cumberland Caverns was designated a National Historic Landmark. Mr. Gorin also served on the Board of Directors of the National Speleological Society. He was also deeply interested in the old grist mills and built the operating Rogers Mill in Summer Shade KY. He was preceded also in death by his brothers, George Danforth Gorin Sr and Lewis Jefferson Gorin Jr. He is survived by five nieces and nephews and ten great nieces and nephews. A funeral service will be held at Pearson's Funeral Home, 149 Breckenridge Lane, Louisville, at 2:00 P.M. Monday, February 5th. (EST) Visitation prior to the funeral beginning at 1:00 P.M. Burial at Cave Hill Cemetery following the service. Expressions of sympathy can take the form of donations to the National Speleological Society, 2813 Cave Avenue Huntsville, AL 35810-4431.
