Gordon Pederson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Jan. 30 to Jan. 31, 2009.

Gordon Lloyd Pederson The Gordfather It is with greatest sadness the family of Gordon Lloyd Pederson announce his untimely passing on Wednesday, January 28th at 9:25 a.m. Dad took his last breaths in the arms of his darling son. Left to mourn are his endlessly devoted wife of 33 years Bonnie; his son Ryan (Chantel); and daughter Amy (Kyle); and his precious granddaughters Skylar (aka Dolly), Destiny, Kaitlyn, Brooklyn, Paige; and unborn grandbaby; parents Bjarne and Phyllis Pederson; brothers Ron, Gary and Danny Pederson; sisters Debbie Pederson and Yvonne (Rick) Savoie; mother and father-in-law Earl and Shirley Ashley; and brothers-in-law Jerry (Madelaine), Jeff (Mavis) and Jim (Gladys) Ashley; and numerous other family and friends. Gord is predeceased by his grandparents Hans and Borghild Pederson; uncles Morris, Ray, Martin, Hans, Oscar and Norman Pederson; cousins Bruce and Carl Pederson. Dad's journey with brain cancer began nearly 5 years ago. He fought hard and with a smile every day. Within the last 2 years dad achieved his proudest accomplishment, becoming a commissionaire. He loved conversations with any and every open ear. He loved to spoil his granddaughters, word search puzzles, Captain Black sweets, Smarties ice cream, and anything chocolate. We thank the nurses at Palliative Care for carrying us ALL through these last 2 weeks and Dr. Sami for being honest. Funeral Service will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Monday, February 2, 2009 at Park Funeral Chapel (311 Third Avenue North, Saskatoon, SK). Interment will take place at a later date. Condolences to the family may be sent through Park's website www.parkfuneral.ca . Arrangements entrusted to Lynn Constantinoff, 244-2103. 1316737

Everyday without you gets harder and harder papa... I wish you could be here to see myself and your amazing grand babies grow. I always talk about you and keep your spirit alive. I know you are here in spirit protecting us. caius always says hi papa Gordie, mummy look papa and he says don´t cry mom be happy life is very hard without my best friend. I wish I could go back to the last time I saw you the day before you left us and just hug you and give u an even bigger kiss and hug than I did. You´re supposed to still be here with us papa it breaks my heart how bad I struggle with you being gone.

Gordo was a dear friend. He was always there for us. He arranged for us to find a new residence and helped us move to Hawarden, Saskatchewan. Much love always, Susan Ewert-Hathiramani

Dear Bonnie, Ryan, Amy and families.
As I sit to write an "In Memoriam" to my daughter Laurie, I am reminded of the time when she was driving down Melrose Avenue in her little red Festiva after a heavy snowfall. She had run over a broken bottle which drove straight into the tire. Gord saw her driving with a flat tire, flagged her down, and changed the tire in the midst of deep snow and brutally cold weather. Such was Gord. A man of kindness and generosity who will always be remembered. I am thankful that my family had the opportunity to know him. My thoughts and prayers are with you always.

Gord was such a good friend to my dad and my memories of them together and the stories Gord would tell will always bring a smile to my face and a warm glow to my heart.

I have such thanks for Gord, for countless reasons, but especially for being my dad's friend and for looking after me when I needed help after my dad was gone.

Thank you Gord.
