Uncle Gordon

We were all saddened by Gordon's passing. Thought Grant's reflections captured something very special. Gordon's influence on the extended family is still very much with us. He was the one who originally organised games and sports for the kids. We remember that in family concerts he was the one who could turn his hand to any role. He would be the front man and then deftly blend into the background. We remember his goodness and gentle nature...even on the squash court. Certainly he was a significant adult figure as we all grew up. At Roseville and Dunbogan and at family gatherings in between his consistency of nature always made him approachable and good fun. We remember him fondly.

At some suitable time,I hope we will have the opportunity of gathering to celebrate Gordon's life.If not in the near future,then maybe at a Woodlawn Christmas.There are uplifting stories to be shared.
