Not listed on Snopes; I sent them the URL with the following research of my own:

I would guess false, because

- The URL cited is attributed as "taken from an e-mail making the rounds."

- Back issues of Harvard Magazine are online; the obits page for Jul-Aug '01 does not list Mr. Gordon. http://www.harvardmagazine.com/on-line/0701121.html

- A search on the magazine site for erik + gordon does not show any references to him.

- A google search for this name produced only references to the fake obituary. http://bear.cba.ufl.edu/gordon/ is clearly not the same person.

I will note, though, that each page on the site contained at least one solicitation for a donation. :-)

The class of '95 is one of the few that does not have a web site per https://www.aad.harvard.edu:443/class/html/class_sites.html

Please investigate. (I suspect one e-mail to the obits editor at Harvard Magazine will demonstrate that this is false.)

Thanks.
