So sorry to hear of Gordon' passing. I'll miss him. He was very good to me. I met Gord way back In the early nineties

in Kamloops when he competed in contests.

R.I.P. Gord.

My sympathy to the Cheyne family and Phyllis. the must has stopped but the melody will linger on. The fiddling community of Kelowna has lost a hero and friend. My husband and I played with Gord at many nursing homes when we lived in Kelowna. Rest in Peace Gord. Irene Donison, Ponoka AB

Gord was a truly good person. He enriched the lives of all who knew him. My mother, Phyllis, was blessed when Gord entered her, and our, lives. He will be missed.

Dear Phyllis I'm so sorry that Gord is gone, he was just a jewel of a man that always had time for a kind word and I like the funny stores he told. He always had a kind word and a pat on the head for Max and Lily. He will be missed for sure.
