Not sure what to say?

Deepest sympathies on the loss of your dear father Gordon. I have but the fondest memories of Gord and Ida at our annual Christian Family Movement (CFM) get-together at my farm in Pontiac County, QC during the 1970s and early 1980s. God Bless both their souls.

Dear Townsend family
Please accept my sympathy in the loss of Dear Gordon
I ( and Brian) spent many wonderful visits with him ( and Ida) and lively conversations
And loved all his greetings at Christmas
He will be missed
Blessed to have him part of our family

Bob and I are very sorry to hear of the passing of Uncle Gord. We have many memories of the fun that we would have when with him. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

Although I can't be with you while you remember your loved one, you're in my thoughts from afar.

Martha,

Very saddened to read of your father's passing. Thinking of you.

My deepest sympathy to the Townsend Family. I was Mr. Townsend's secretary at the Canadian Transport Commission from 1971 to 1973. At just 18, he made a very positive impression on me and encouraged me to travel - which I later did. I have often thought of him and was heartened to learn that he enjoyed 95 happy years. No doubt he packed very many good things into every one of those years. It was a pleasure to know him. May he rest in peace.

We are saddened by the news of Gord's passing. We fondly remember many fun visits with him and Ida here in Ottawa and at their place in Amherstciew. They were both so interesting, full of life and interested in what others were up to.
We extend our deepest condolences to the entire family.

Dear Family of Gordon,
I am saddened by the death of dear Gord. He and Ida were frequent visitors at the St. Joseph Provincial House in Amherstview, often at Mass, and we loved them and their visits. I offer you my sympathy at their loss. Wonderful friends!
Blessings!

My brother Gordon and Ida and Gordon were such good friends. He often spoke of wonderful visits and animated discussions at the Townsends. I too have fond memories of you and your parents, Andrea, Martha and Madeleine. Thinking of you all at this time.
