There will be no service at this time. A Celebration of Life will be held on November 15, 2025 from 1-4pm at Gordon’s residence in Sudbury. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made directly to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be greatly appreciated.

Where to begin ? I got to know Gordie really well as we worked together for many years. He was always up for a friendly chat, and I became very fond of him, and also considered him one of my greatest friends while I lived in Ontario. He didnt mind helping out in all areas, and was the best worker that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I consider him my mentor, and a great friend that will be sadly missed. His loss is truly devastating and I will never forget him. God bless him, and I offer my sincerest condolences to all of you.

Gord you were my baby brother. I love you so much and will miss you dearly. You were always ready to help anyone whether it was someone in your neighbourhood or a stranger or your friends. You would just drop everything and lend a hand. You just cared for people. You are fondly remembered by all who had met you. God needed another angel and he picked you. I will miss you forever but we shall meet again someday. I will love you always Gord. Love and hugs to you from your older sister..Rosanne
