Shirley, so sorry to learn of Gord's passing. While it has been many years since I last saw Gord, I have always remembered enjoyable days working with him at Arctic Sports Products and the noon-hour and after-work ping pong games in the warehouse. I could always count on Gord's infectious laugh to follow one of my jokes. Our sincere condolences. Earl and Pat Ray - Posted by: Earl Ray (Co-worker) on: Mar 28, 2017

Shirley and family: Gordon and I started kindergarten together in 1950. We shared the same class for several years and I have always felt connected to Gordon, even after so many years. He was truly kind and gentle and respected by everyone. I'm sure he will be greatly missed by many. Rest peacefully, dear Gordon. - Posted by: Sandra Paluc(Steeds) (School friend) on: Mar 25, 2017

Shirley and family: I am deeply saddened to learn of Gord's passing. I can empathize with your grief having lost my wife Adèle just 7 weeks ago. I have a many fond memories of Gordy from our days at Gordon Bell and the U of W. He was a kind and gracious man and I don't think I ever heard him say a bad word about anybody. I know you will miss him so. May he rest in peace. - Posted by: Bill Carroll (Friend) on: Mar 25, 2017
