I was so sad to hear this sad news. I will always have a special place in my heart for the wonderful, kind and determined man that Maurice was. I was always proud to think of myself as his (host) daughter and grateful to have known him. Sending special love to Marilyn and Paul and Andrew and their families xx

So sad to learn of this news. Maurice was an all round great guy. Committed to his friends, family and community. A man whose advice you could trust, and who would always go the extra mile. My mom and dad (Hank and Betty) considered Maurice and Marilyn two of their greatest friends. Love and friendship go on forever, and are never lost or very far away. Condolences to Marilyn and her family.

I met Maurice at his brother's Russell's 90th birthday celebratioa few years ago. He was one of the speakers. He impressed me as a man with a sense of humour and who shared a strong and affectionate bond with his
brother, Russell.
I offer sincere condolences to his wife, Marilyn and family.

RIP Maurice Gomme

I met Maurice through the Rotary Club of St. Catharines. He provided great leadership and advice and was very humble, but firm, when providing advice. Such a kind man. Rest in peace.
