Add my storyBiography contributed by Gerry Hunter
Gordon was a Merchandise Manager at William Haughton's (Agrochemicals).
He died from cancer only 6 months after his retirement and was cremated with his ashes interred at Centennial Park. They were later mixed with our mother's ashes upon her death in August 2000 and returned to earth by their daughters.
