I played hockey with Gordon upon our arrival in the Okanagan, 2006. He was a true gentleman both on and off the ice. When he retired from hockey Gordon could be found on the golf course. The winter that my wife was undergoing treatments for breast cancer he and Barbara hosted us for a splendid Christmas Dinner, knowing that we were unable to be with our sons and their families in Ontario. Gordon, my friend, you will be missed.
