Gordon Fawcett
Gordon Fawcett, of Moncton,

Born and raised in Killams
Mills, NB, he was the son of the late Arthur and Matilda (nee Carson)

retirement years.

54 years, Judy Fawcett, and their two sons: Dr. Bruce (Penny) Fawcett
of Moncton and Commander (USCG) Paul (Holly) Fawcett of Philadelphia,
