  1. I was so sorry to learn of the passing of Gordon. I worked with Gordon at the South Dunedin post Shop for some years and always enjoyed his company. Rab and Gwenda came to Dunedin last week on the way to Timaru for Gwen's hip operation and we had lunch together. I have sent messages to other staff members who will remember him. Our thoughts are with you Kathy and your family. Regards Kay

  2. Dear Kathy and family So very sorry to hear of Gordon's passing. We had such great times at Sth Dn Post, Gordon was a quiet fun person with a bit of a wicked sense of humour. Ian and I always enjoyed the outside work activities we had, pot luck teas, shows at Fortune Theater and even the odd train trip. Lots of wonderful memories. Thinking of you all at this sad time Kind Regards Daphne and Ian
