Dear Ruth and Family: It is with sadness I have learned of Gordon's passing. May fond memories of Gordon, and the comfort of family and friends, help you through this difficult time of sorrow. Although I would like to be able to attend either the visitation or Gord's funeral, I am not certain I will be able to due to the weather conditions. Will have to see what Tuesday brings. I will however, be forwarding a donation to Wesley United Church in his memory. With kindness, Lois Reoch
