I've only just seen this, searching for Annette. My heart goes out to the family. Known Gordon since he and Annette got together, many years ago. You will have incredible memories, so they will both be with yous always.

I was Gordon's first apprentice back in 1983, he was an outstanding boss.
He taught me the most important grounding which has led me to where I am today. A real father figure. I now wish I had made a bigger effort to catch up with him & Annette in recent years.

Always sad to see a good guy and friend leave our circle here below. To gordon's other family and friends, take joy for when the circle is made complete again. Special memories of our days spent in Youth Groups.

Though you have made me see troubles,many & bitter,you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up.
You will increase my honour & comfort me once again.
