The Avro Arrow was one of Canada’s finest Aviation Achievements, even though it never entered service. Gordon joined the Moose Jaw Police Service that same July, and also served 6 years as training officer with the Moose Jaw Air Cadet Squadron. He often talked about their exchange trip to the Maritimes.

When Gordon moved to Foam Lake he would work Bingos for the Tuffnell Hall, and was Chairman of the Handi -Van. Gordon was a member of the Sheho Legion and worked many beer gardens at the Sheho Sports/Rodeo grounds. Gordon’s sense of humour was always present his door was always open, and he enjoyed his Happy Hour outside with family and friends in the neighborhood. This is what kept Gordon centered. Gordon always had a joke to share or would share one on Facebook. His wit was always there but would somehow change when the Riders or his beloved Leafs would lose! Gordon spent many an hour in his garage making angels, Christmas decorations and crows that he would hang in his neighbors yard. His talents were many and he had just got interested with digital jigsaw puzzles on his tablet. Gordon kept up with his photography on the computer. His love for his wife and family was the greatest of all!
