I was very saddened to learn of Gord’s passing. Condolences to all his family, whom he dearly loved.
Special heartfelt prayers for Donna. It was truly an honour to have been given the opportunity to “visit” with you both most mornings. Donna, you and Gord gave back to me the laughter, appreciation and respect that makes my career worth doing.
May you all find some peace in the happy memories.
