Gordon, you were a good friend for 40 years, from work at DVA Wesminster Hospital to Parkwood Hospital. You always took time to talk to me in the hallway, about war time peace time and food time, any time.
You were a loyal client and never complaint, always appreciate life and life that was given. RIP Gordon. You"ll be greatly missed.
Jim

He was a man of many names, a war hero, a husband, a Dad, a Grandfather, a great-grandfather... but to us he was our “Goompa”! We are so great-ful to have had you in all our lives. There are sooo many fond memories to share and cherish forever... Here are just some of my favourite - When we were just young, and we’d spend our summers at our grandparents. Lis and I would ride that old red tricycle in the laneway in circles over and over again, while Goompa was the 'gas attendant’, he’d fill’er up as we’d pass by and we’d we paid him with his canadian tire money. (He had rolls of it!!) For everyone that knows him, among many things He loved 'Canaaaadian Tire!’... or loved the times He'd let us play 'hair dresser', while he’d watch tv. We’d put him to sleep sometimes combing his hair, we wouldn’t notice until he was snoring.... Then there were those mornings he'd bring home his ‘finds' from garage sales... and I would get to go through his treasures and he’d let me pick out what something special that I liked. <3 But my fondest memory was when he'd always want to hold our hands, and then give it a kiss... The silly part was he always kissed his own hand, and of course we’d tell him "Goompa, you kissed your own hand!!" and he would say “Noooo watch” and then kiss his own hand again. Lol. Not only did he do this while we were young, but still all our visits as we grew older. Wish we could still hold your hand, but for now we will hold you in our hearts until we can see you again. Love and miss you always Goompa! xoxo Wendy, Nick, Madison & Trystan <3
