MY DAD WAS THE MOST WONDERFUL PERSON YOU WOULD EVER HAVE KNOWN. HE GAVE ME LIFE AND LOVE, HE LOVED ME AND WANTED ONLY THE BEST FOR ME. THIS MAN WOULD HAVE GIVEN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FAMILY. EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE A HUSBAND LIKE HIM AND EVERY CHILD SHOULD HAVE A FATHER LIKE HIM. THE LOVE HE HAD IN HIS HEART WAS SO LARGE AND GIVING. I MISS HIM EVERYDAY BUT I KNOW HE IS WATCHING OVER ME AND I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN. LOVE YOU DAD - Posted by: patricia evans (daughter) on: Dec 31, 2013

Although I only new Gordon for a short time I will truly miss his stories we used to share when I would stop by to visit. He was a wonderful man and had a good sense of humour. I know Nellie will miss him very much and Bradley. Our thoughts are with you both. Rest In Peace Gordon...,your friends Barbara and Robyn - Posted by: Barb Reimer (Family friend ) on: Jan 09, 2013
