'''Gaylord Koffi''' is [[Gobias Koffi]]'s father. He is buried in [[Pleasant Rest Graveyard]], [[Sunset Valley]], and sometimes appears as a ghost in the cemetery.
 
HisGobias Koffi is a clear reference to ''Arrested Development''<nowiki/>'s Tobias Funke, a character who is often implied to be gay. Gaylord's first name may be a pun on the term "gay" — slang for "homosexual," thereby implying that he is [[Same-sex relationship|homosexual]] or that his son is gay. However, "Gaylord" is an actual, if uncommon, given name.<ref>[[Wiktionary:Gaylord|Wiktionary]] says that it has "rarely been given after the 1960s because of the modern meaning of gay."</ref>&nbsp; It may have been intended to sound somewhat "old-fashioned." It is possible that his name doesn't imply he's gay, but implies he's the father of a gay son. Lord implies an authority, for example, he's the authority of [[Gobias Koffi|someone who's gay]].▼
Gobias Koffi's mother does not appear in the family tree, and they don't share any physical features, so it is possible that Gaylord adopted him. Gaylord dresses like a cowboy. ▼

Like other ghosts in Sunset Valley, when resurrected his hat will not carry over into his other outfits by default. Like some other ghosts, this will cause a glitch where part of his hair appears colorless. This can be fixed by reselecting his current hairstyle at a stylist, in [[Create-A-Sim]] using [[testingcheats]], or with [[NRaas Industries]] Master Controller.
