Obituary for Jim Gordon
Gordon, William Robert James
With heavy hearts we announce the untimely passing of our head of household Jim Gordon at Headwaters Health Care Centre Friday April 7, 2023 surrounded by love. He put up a short but determined battle of Cancer. He leaves behind his loving wife of 48 years, Lori Gordon and loving children and spouses Jennifer and Jason Bourne, Mary and Robb Buchanan and John and Katie Gordon. Eldest son of Mabel and the late Wes Gordon. Missed by his grandchildren Savannah, Beth, Caleb, Lauren, Rachel and Evelyn who were his pride and joy. Sadly missed by his siblings Mary Lou Cunningham (Glen), Bob Gordon, June Gordon (Paul Smart) Special Uncle to Anne Putnam (Wayde), Scott Cunningham (Susan) and Charlotte Gordon. Greatly missed by many other family and friends.
Jim was a pillar to the community for much of his life. Served proudly as a Dufferin County Paramedic for almost 30 years. He enjoyed his work and loved the community. Motorcycles were his passion and loved the open road. Jim and Lori would come together with friends and become Orangeville Valley Riders. He always enjoyed helping others, and the club put together a yearly ride to raise funds for Hospice Dufferin. The ridepoker run was a success and became a yearly fundraiser. The club managed to raise funds for 10 years.
Special thanks to Dr. McKinnon for your support through this difficult process. Your kindness will always be remembered. Also to the staff of Fwing for your kindness and care of him.
Thank You to Tom and Wendy Reid for always being a huge support.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations to Hospice Dufferin in Jim's memory.
Visitation will be held at the Dods & McNair Funeral Home, Chapel & Reception Centre, 21 First St., Orangeville on Saturday April 15th, 2023 from 4:00 pm - 8:00 pm . Funeral Service will be held in the chapel on Sunday April 16th, 2023 at 1:00 pm. Family welcomes everyone to come dressed as they wish or as Jim would wish.
