Are you using R's search capabilities (to say nothing of Google's)?

RSiteSearch("Gompertz", restr="func")

brings up several functions/packages that might do what you need.

Have you reviewed the capabilities of the eha package?

http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/eha/eha.pdf

I thought that I had seen examples of the use of the Design package  
(and presumably this would have applied to the rms package) for  
fitting Gompertz models in an accelerated failure time framework, but  
checking Harrell's RMS text fails to confirm this memory.
