Our thoughts and prayers are with all the family. I will remember Uncle Gord cooking dinner for David, Jackie, Dennis and myself at the cottage in Matlock. A great big plate of spaghetti wth meatballs the size of a softball, and always delivered with the biggest smile. Thanks Uncle Gord, for making me feel like one of your own.
