GORDON EDWARD QUINN
Gordon Edward Quinn, born July 2, 1950, passed away peacefully at his home on the family farm on April 2, 2025, surrounded by his family.
Gordon attended Breadalbane School in his early years then graduated grade 12 in 1967 from Virden Collegiate Institute and began working for Manitoba Hydro. Gordon worked for Manitoba Hydro for 38 ½ years and retired from the company in 2005.
Gordon and Thelma were married in 1971 and moved back onto the family farm in 1974 after Gordon’s father’s passing. Gordon's three children and his grandchildren were truly his joy and greatest achievement.
Gordon leaves to mourn his wife Thelma of 53 years; his children Tricia Hayward (Brad) and their three daughters, Chloe Sheane (Travis), Olivia and Georgia; his son Robert and his partner Tara, and Rob’s three children Cadence, Derek and Reece; his youngest daughter Lori and her partner Jason; and his sister Gwen Clarke and her family. Gordon was predeceased by his parents Robert and Hilda Quinn and his sister Betty-Anne Quinn.
There will be a Celebration of Gordon’s Life at 2:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 17, 2025, at Tundra Oil & Gas Place in Virden, Manitoba. A cremation has taken place, with arrangements by Hunter Funerals, and Gordon will be laid to rest at Breadalbane Cemetery at a later date.
Donations can be made in Gordon’s memory to CancerCare Manitoba or the Salt Lake Committee.
