ROFFA member/former Captain Gord West passed away


Gordon Richard West passed away peacefully on March 3, 2022. Loving husband of Bonnie for nearly 50 years. Proud father of Courtney (Adina). Big brother to Tom (Karen) and Elizabeth Laphen (Barry). Uncle Gorgeous to Corey, Kelsey and Taylor, great uncle to Chloe. Gordie proudly served his community as a firefighter for 35 years. He coached hockey and softball, and spent countless hours fundraising for good causes through the Fire Fighter's Benevolent Fund. In his retirement, he enjoyed golf, coffee, and spending time with family. We love him so much, and we miss him dearly. Special thanks to Dr. Sarti, Dr. Fung, the nurses and staff at the General and the QCH for their care and compassion. A simple Celebration of Life will take place on Sunday, March 20, 2022 at the Tanglewood Community Centre, 30 Woodfield Drive, Nepean, Ontario. Flexible drop-in from 2:00pm to 4:30pm, some words at 2:30pm. Masks and up-to-date COVID vaccines respectfully requested. Donations in memoriam may be made to the CHEO Foundation. May Gordie's memory live on through kindness and good works in our community.
