Cremation has taken place and at Gordons request no service will be held. Special thanks to Dr. Fuchs and nurses, Trudy, Val and Jamie. Flowers are gratefully declined. If so desired, donations may be made in Gords memory to the Winnipeg Humane Society. In tears we saw you sinking, We watched you fade away, You suffered much in silence, You fought so hard to stay. You faced your task with courage, Your spirit did not bend, But still you kept on fighting Until the very end. God saw you getting tired, When a cure was not to be, So He put His arms around you, And whispered, "Come to Me." So when we saw you sleeping So peaceful, free from pain, We could not wish you back, To suffer that again. You didnt deserve what you went through, So He took you home to rest. Gods garden must be beautiful, For He only takes the best. Gilbart Funeral Home, Selkirk in care of arrangements.
