I was saddened to hear of Gordon’s passing.
It is especially difficult, this time of year.
I remember when Uncle Gordon would visit our house in Chepstow. He always had a smile and liked to tease us.
His love of music and his devotion to his family will always
stand out in my memory.
Sincere Sympathy
