I was very sorry to hear of Gord senior’s passing. Although he had a long life full of Love and Happiness it is never easy when we have to say good bye. He was a wonderful man who will be missed by many .

God Bless,

What a beautiful picture choice that captures "Mr. Larsen" well. The strong silent type with a special smile. I was lucky to be one of the students he hired. I have never forgotten my first job as it taught me alot about hard work and enabled me to save to go to University. Weekends and holidays spent at the Halls Lake cottage in all seasons with the whole Larsen family and Craig Liddiard are held fondly in a very special place in my memory bank and always will be. Thinking of all of you at this time.
