Gordon Campbell, Taunton, Somerset, UK Dearest Aunt Barb, Wanda, and Gordon,
Please accept my heartfelt sorrow to learn of my Uncle Gord’s passing. I’ve been recalling the family visits in Martinon, Halifax, Montreal, and Calgary. And the times he took me to the beach for a swim at Penobsquis and Martinon. Also his encouragement to study Accounting, and how much I admired him and loved him. The years are long since we’ve all seen each other, but I invite you all to make contact.
I would love to hear how you all have fared.
Blessings to you all, and much love,
“Little” Gord

Kovacs Our deepest condolences and sadness learning about the passing of uncle Gord.I was just thinking about him and aunt Barb a few weeks ago, and remembering that it was about 18 years ago when we all met up North.The good times we all had up north with my cousins. Remember the time when you and uncle Gord had gone shopping and came back with a new car! I enjoyed his unpredictable humour and puns.

Oh Barbara, once again, words fail me. Gordon was the best of neighbours, and adored by both Eva and me. How sorry I am that we didn’t have more time together.
Much love.
