Obituary

Gordon’s life started in the Kingston, Ontario army camp where he was born, the third of five children. He lived in Jericho and then Ladner army camps where he attended school at Lord Byng and then graduated from Delta Secondary.

His career in the gas industry allowed him to work worldwide until he went on to establish his own company in human relations. He worked out of the local union hall, teaching conflict resolution and encouraging youth across BC to take up the trades.

Gordon’s life passion was the beautiful game of Soccer, he played and refereed. He was a director of the British Columbia Soccer Association and is on the Honour Roll. Gordon was also a Freemason and a Past Master of Progress Lodge No. 87 on the register of the Grand Lodge of British Columbia and Yukon, as was his father. He fathered 2 children in his first marriage and has a stepson with his current spouse. Gordon’s accomplishments are numerous, he didn’t waste the life he was given and until cancer took him, he continued working.

He was predeceased by his parents George and Gladys.

Gordon is lovingly remembered by his wife Jie Cui-Rogers (Janet); his siblings Barbara E, Frederick S, William C and Kenneth W.S. Forever remembered by his children Michael B and Patricia E. Stepchild; Yuan Qi Luo (Eric); and the many others who will miss him.

This world has lost a good man. The will of God has been accomplished.

There will be a Committal Service on Friday, November 4th at 2:00 pm at the Pacific Heritage Cemetery in Burnaby, BC.

The family would like to thank the nursing and hospital staff at St. Paul’s Hospital for taking such great care of Gordon.
