Gordon Rinzler
Gordon
Rinzler, 94, of Riverview, passed away peacefully within the comforts
of his home on Wednesday, November 4, 2020. Born in
Winnipeg, MB, he was the son of the late Max and Fannie (Lavitch)
Rinzler.
Gordon was
owner/operator of Rinzler’s Meat Market for 56 years; it was
his second home. Gordon devoted his life to his beloved family and his
passion for work. Many of his long-term employee’s were like
family to him. Gordon’s dedication to “the store”
stemmed from his profound pride for his family and his desire to take
care of them. His passions extended to such things as maintaining a
perfect lawn and flower gardens, or as he would call them “flower
bed’s” and his love for animals, specifically his many
dogs, he would refer to his dogs as family
also.
Gordon will be
sadly missed by his loving children, James Rinzler (Karen) of Moncton,
Jeff Rinzler of Moncton, Peggy Rinzler Roelen (Ed) of Kanata, ON and
Joel Rinzler (Jill) of Toronto; grandchildren, Kerri, Andrew, Jason,
Zachary, Emma and Cera; great grandchildren, Alex, Leela, Alex, Gavin
and Damon; brothers, Harold Rinzler (Roxie) and David Rinzler
(Carole); many nieces, nephews and extended family members. In
addition to his parents, Gordon was predeceased by his wife, Gayle
(MacDonald) and brother, Joseph “Joe”
Rinzler.

Death notice for the town of: Moncton, Province: Nouveau-Brunswick
My condolences to the Rinzler family. I worked at the store for a few years during high school in the mid 1980s. I have many fond memories of Gordon and loved working for the family. I still make his spaghetti sauce to this day. The recipe was permanently affixed to the cupboard door upstairs at the old store. I’m sure he will be greatly missed.
