March 26, 1945 – July 3, 2023
Gordon, aged 78, passed unexpectedly while out bike riding. He was sure he’d live to 100 and will truly be missed by many.
Gordon was born and raised in Victoria, went to Esquimalt High, worked for various companies in construction (sheet metal worker) until retirement. He loved family, old cars, gardening, collecting, walking dogs, travelling, dancing, reminiscing about his life growing up, reading, and often helping others. He was always looking forward to what the day would bring, had a wicked sense of humour and a twinkle in his eye.
Left to remember him are his wife of 40 years, Karen; his son, Eldon (Holly, Dominque, and Rune); sister, Lynn (Barry) Cleveland; sister-in-law Michele (Drew); brother-in-law Blake (Jill); numerous nieces and nephews; and many friends and neighbours. Gord is predeceased by his parents, and daughter Angie.
