Gordon grew up and attended school in West Kildonan. He worked for many years at the Winnipeg Free Press as a journeyman pressman from which he retired at the age of 65 in 1992. He loved his work and often said it was the best job, and that he had the greatest bunch of guys to work with. He had an avid interest in sports as a youth and an adult. His main and lasting interest was golf which he enjoyed by playing many courses throughout Canada and the United States. Gordon will be remembered for his great love for his wife Pearl and all his family and friends. We will all miss his keen sense of humour and his many pranks and antics. A celebration of Gordons life will be held at St. Johns Presbyterian Church, 251 Bannerman Ave. and Charles at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, January 12 with Rev. Ken Innes officiating.
