I am sad for all of us at the loss of this “gentle”man. I still remember the hard times he gave me when I tried to get him to spend money on the car for himself, then, when it was time to turn the car over to a grandchild, there was no limit! I will always smile when I think of Gord.
Sincerely
Carmen
