I was sorry to hear about the passing of Gord. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
With Sympathy from

My condolences to Liz and the entire Jenkin family. Gord you will be missed by the many friends you had in the aviation community. Gord was a true professional who had our backs and never stopped working until the last screw was secured in the panel. One of my all time favorite memories of Gord was coming off a 12 hour night shift. As I was leaving work, Gord handed me a bag and said this will help you sleep when you get home. I opened the bag and it was a nice cold beer. Rest in Peace Gord !
Thoughts and prayers are with you Liz, the boys, Uncle Hoot and to all the family. Gord lived and loved life to the fullest.????

Liz and family, I am so saddened to hear about Gord. My Mom and Dad kept me apprised of his health and the many challenges he faced. He is truly an inspiration to us all with how he always had such a positive attitude even though he was going through some very difficult times. My memory of Gord definitely has to be his laugh and him always saying a cheery hello over the fence. ???? My thoughts are with you, the boys, family and friends during this difficult time.
Liz and Family, Thinking of you at this difficult time, cherish your memories.
Liz and Family,
Our condolences to you and your family. Know that we are thinking of you at this very difficult time. Cherish all the wonderful memories you have made together over the years.
Ron & Lynn Whitmore
Offering my sincere condolence to Liz and the entire Jenkin family. I had the great good fortune and privilege to have worked with Gord at Air Ontario for many years. Feeling down, feeling frustrated, needing something to cheer you up? Five minutes with Gord and you can’t stop laughing. I have so many fond memories of this wonderful man.
When it’s my turn to take the next journey, I hope Gord is there to tell me my first joke.
Gord my good friend, rest in Peace (at least until I get there with you).
Elizabeth and Family:
Nancy and I were very sorry to hear of Gord’s passing. I was extremely lucky to work with Gord supporting aircraft operations in Canada, Gabon, Kenya, Rwanda and Japan. He was always a trusted, dependable, hardworking partner and the laughter, stories and good cheer he brought to whatever we were doing made the work easier and the sun shine brighter. Gord had his priorities straight however and while work could be enjoyable, it was always very clear that his family came before all else.
Gord, your joyful soul and gentle spirit brought a lot of happiness to those whose lives you touched. Rest in peace, my friend.
Always to lend a helping hand with a smile and a laugh – Gord helped us with some plumbing in our first home at Clandeboye. Then he put us in touch with Blaine who helped me with some of the best concrete work I’ve ever seen. True memories that help us enjoy life. God love ya man!
Liz and family,
We were so sorry to hear of Gord’s passing. We remember a lot of great visits with you and Gord “over the fence”. We wish you strength as you go through these hard days ahead.
Liz and kids Anna and I are sorry for your loss, Gord was a great person .
We are deeply saddened to hear of Gord’s passing, Our sincerest condolences to the entire family. He will truly be missed.
Liz and Family
So very sorry to read of Gord’s passing. Our thoughts are with you all.
Liz and family, my condolences on Gord’s passing. I was mostly a helicopter guy, with a short stint at Air Ontario and with the dash 8 fleet out of Centralia. I was always happy to see Gord when he was in… could not imagine a better guy to work with. His positive attitude and hilarious storys when we were doing a particularly nasty job have never been forgotten. It’s been years since I’ve seen Gord, but remember working with him like it was yesterday. Definately a sad day.
Dear Liz,
May the good Lord bless you and your family with peace, and have mercy on any pain or heartache.
I wish I could be there to give you a hug.
Dear Liz and family
Words seem inadequate in moments like these, what we will say though is that our hearts go out to you. Gord was a great person with a laugh that would instantly make you smile and that was heard up and down the street. We have so many fond memories of our time spent with your family. The garage was a popular spot to watch nascar, enjoy some good natured ribbing and to tip back a cold one. Gordie, we are privileged to have known you.
Steve and Jenny Jones
Liz, Josh, Ryan John , and families,
We are so sorry Gord has passed . He truly was a character with a heart of gold. If anyone was working on a home project , it would not be long before Gord would come along with hammer in hand. We’ll miss his jokes, stories, laugh, and friendly wave from across the street. Through his illness he maintained his sense of humour. Gord will be missed. Please know are thoughts are with all of you . May your memories make you smile.
Dear Liz and Family:
Gord was one of the fellows from Air Ontario that I got to know and appreciate his sense of humour and the times he stopped at the house with you Liz and Don got to know him too. He will be greatly missed by so many.
Our heartfelt sympathy.
Don & Judy
Was so sad to hear of Gord’s passing. Wishing you lots of wonderful memories and time to share with your family. You have a wonderful family to give you comfort Liz. Peace be with you all. Linda and Dale
Dear Liz and Family
It is with deepest sympathy and a heavy heart that we say good bye to a man that has been so much to many. When my Dad pass away, we where working at Purple Hill Air and Gord came to the funeral and helped me after that. I had a blast working with him there, I learned from him and probably give him a few laughs along the way. One time we worked on the twin Apache rebuilding the dash. Great times. He was lots of laughs and great enjoyment weather it was down stairs in the cave or out and the garage (man cave) watching racing having a drink. Or just shooting the sh…. I sure will miss him
RIP Gord
Liz and Family,
Our thoughts are with you in this difficult time. We all have fond memories of our over the fence neighbour catching us mid climb or hanging out in the backyard.
Cheers Gord!!

I had the pleasure to know and work with him for many a year and he never , not once came into work with anything but a smile….good bye my fine friend…see you on the other side.
It’s pasted due, I have only just heard about Gord’s passing. My whole hearted condolences to the entire family! I know he will be truly missed.
