A true gentleman, loving Husband, Father, Grand & Great Grand. To have known you, is to be proud. Enjoy "bumping" in and out on Monday as this's one's for you. Thank YOU for showing so many others what it means to give everything your best and live life to the fullest. Your children are reflections of this. Rest in peace.

A man whose joy of singing and entertaining was infectious and came out in every performance. He will be missed by performer and patron alike.

RIP Gordon... truly an inspiration to so many artists in Rockhampton both, young and old. You will be sorely missed by the entire community.

RIP Mr Shields, I have fond memories of you as one of my first bosses when I started work at Rockhampton City Council in December 1981.
