Condolences for the family of “Gordon Mathew Wainwright”

Condolence from Joe MacMillan on March 23rd, 2015 7:17 pm

I was lucky enough to work with Gord for almost 18 years at CCL. He was one of the few truly honest good people I had the pleasure to know. I remember oh so many years ago when I had to pull him out of a printing press. He was hurt quite bad but never flinched or complained. I got him to Jo-Brant and they quickly gave him a shot of Demerol, all smiles after that. Next day went to visit him and when they gave me his room number as I was walking along the hall all I could here where babies crying. Only room they had available was in the maternity ward. Not a complaint out of Gord, that’s the way he rolled.

Working with Gord, since CCL moved to Toronto so many years ago, I had the pleasure to work and get to know Gord as a beautiful person inside and out. There wasn’t a moment that was the wrong time to talk if you needed guidance he was there for you to get you through the roughest moments to lead you through the calm waters, and always check back the next day to make sure everything was OK. You will always be in my thoughts and prayers My deepest condolences to Susan and Family! R.I.P. Gord, I am watching you!

I spent my teenage years living on the same street as Gord and his children, they were very special people, and Gord always had a smile on his face, and treated me with the utmost respect:) Rest in Peace Xo

Condolence from Steve Dent on March 25th, 2015 8:57 am

Gord and I worked together for more than 31 years, and from the beginning I considered him a good friend, and mentor. I will miss both the serious conversations as well as the laughs. Miss you pal.

Condolence from Susan Pittam on March 25th, 2015 2:45 pm

Most of my memories of Gordon are when he was a little boy. During my summer vacation from school, I would go to my sisters home to look after him and his sister Linda. Every morning we had a routine and that was to watch Popeye The Sailor Man. He would never miss it. He would say “come on Auntie Susie, Popeye is on” and we would have to sing the song. Afternoon was to the park, Linda in the stroller and him hanging on to my shirt until we got there. That little boy could run like the wind. He will always have a place in my heart. Love you “Gordie” you’re the Best.

Condolence from Dianna and Dave Bennett on March 25th, 2015 4:58 pm

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Gord. For many years our kids hung out together, and we spent many evenings together. You were always with a smile, and he gave good encouragement when needed. Our hearts go out to the family. Love Dianna and Dave

Dear Wainwright Family,

So sorry to hear about Gord. I remember his generosity clearly. Years ago when I was pioneering without a car, he offered his car to me while he was going away on vacation. I was so grateful! I never forgot that, and still appreciate that gesture.

I will be thinking of you tomorrow and pray that Jehovah gives you strength in the next coming days and months.

Natasha

So sorry to hear about the loss of Gord. He was a great guy. I had the pleasure of working and doing some carpooling with Gord as we worked at the same place for awhile. He was a guy who liked to laugh and was very down to earth. We could all learn a few things from him. He will be missed. Our condolences to the family.

Condolence from barbara Kemp on March 30th, 2015 5:58 pm

As Gord”s mother it really warmed my heart to read the pleasant remarks that have been said about Gord. Knowing him as I did, I have to say they are all true. He was a loving and caring son. always there for me.
Thankyou so much

Condolence from Jennifer (nee Hunter) Cook on April 2nd, 2015 6:29 pm

Susan, Kyle, Melanie, Shane and Julia;
I was heartbroken to hear of Gord’s passing. I always remember him for his big smile and unwavering love for Jehovah. I remember field service in the back of the station wagon with you all! Especially hearing Gord laughing as he drove and listened to Shane reading so emphatically from the Bible as we sat backwards looking out the rear window! 😉
How grateful we can all be to know that he is asleep and in Jehovah’s memory. Our tears will turn to those of joy very soon when Jehovah calls him and Gord answers! How wonderful those hugs will be!!
Prayers and hugs from Alberta!
Love Jennifer and Family!
