“Heather: so saddened to hear of Gord's passing. It brings back memories of Sir Winston, especially the football team we were teammates on. I distinctly remember Gord emceeing the Variety Night one year and actually smoking a cigarette on the stage. I have no idea how he got away with that. I was glad I got to see you both last year at Bill Heelis's celebration of life I trust you have many happy memories of your 50+ years of marriage to sustsin you through this difficult time.”

“The world lost a very special person when Gord passed away. My memories of him were of a very intelligent, interesting and gentle man with a commanding presence. He was a wonderful neighbour and I enjoyed our conversations. He was so proud of his job at the Holiday Inn but certainly appreciated and enjoyed his retirement. To Heather, Sue, Chris and family, my sincere condolences.”
