Colleen; My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I believe that tears can heal, that memories can comfort, and that love lives on forever.
Marvin Michaelis:
I know that Gord will be missed by not only your family but the community at large that he was involved with. No one can ever say that Gord did not care about the customers he dealt with. I had the privilege of working with Gord for most of the time he was with ATB.
He was a good friend to me.
Donna and I want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Gale Page:
My thoughts and prayers are with you Colleen and the family. Gord holds a very special part in my heart from our ATB days. He was a great partner and I’m so grateful to have been able to work with him. The hours we spent having conversations and the advice he would give me was always so meaningful. While we’ll all miss him tremendously, it adds comfort knowing that he is pain free and at peace.
Matt Toonders:
Gord knew how to bring a level of fun and still get the job done. I will always remember Gord as the man who saw projects through with trust he was dealing with people he knew. Loyalty and friendships were made everywhere he went.
My deepest condolences to Colleen and family.
Corina Brown :
Gord will be missed in my shop. We will miss his kind smile and his crazy socks. I’d like to think you are more than a client. You’re like a friend. The Hairshop won’t be the same without you. Rest in peace!
