It is with sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Gordon Stanley Eckersley at his home, on Monday, October 7, 2019, at the age of 85. Loving husband of Josephine Bryant, father of Bill (Kareen) of Mississauga and Susan of Whistler, B.C. Step-father to David and Michael (Nikki) Stroh of Toronto.

Gord I met you about 51 years ago on Finch ave. in Van's office. Van and I smoked cigarettes . You had a magnificent collection of pipes. And we have been acquaintances and then friends ever since. You were a unique individual and part of the "last bastion" of the real estate guise of old. We wish peacefulness to your family as a you used to not hearing your voice, enjoying your wit, and missing your presence
