Condolences

I May i extend my condolences to all of Mrs Gordons family. I worked with your mum at Bakers Nursing Home in Mount Forest for 3 yrs. I was a atudent at that time and when off to nursing school the staff gave me a splendid party. I thought you mum wasnt going to let me go . She was such a nice lady and so motherly. When Ron and I go through varney i still look at her home.and wondered where she was. To live until 100 is quite remarkable. She loved her family and was very proud.
