On Thursday August 27, the world lost a hero, father, and a great man. GORDON ALLAN LARSON passed away peacefully with “His Girls” by his side after a valiant battle with cancer.
Gord’s legacy is carried on by his beloved wife Carrie, daughters Aspen Larson (Austin Piper) of Foremost and Mickyla Larson of Magrath, his sister Christine Larson of Magrath, brother Willard (Maureen) Larson of Lethbridge, father and brother in law Kirk and Codey Godlonton, among others to numerous to mention.
Gord was greeted with open arms and a cocktail by his parents Willard and Roberta Larson, sister Rowena (Stewart), and mother in law Judy Godlonton (Shaw).
Gord married the love of his life Carrie on April 11, 1998, and they began enjoying all the many things that Gord treasured together. Gord loved life, his girls, family and friends. Whether it was traveling to a beach, golfing, camping, or fishing, Gord always wanted those he cared about around to enjoy life with him.
Many were privileged to know Gord as “Uncle Booze”. You didn’t spend time with Uncle Booze without a drink in your hand and hearing a story or two. Gord always tried to make sure those around were having a good time and felt welcome. He went out of his way to make sure people he cared about never went without and knew he was there for them.
Gord will be missed but never forgotten. He touched the lives of everyone he met. At this time, the family asks that in lieu of flowers, a donation be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.
Cremation, with a private interment at a later date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Larson Gordon January 14 1970..
Death notice for the town of: Lethbridge, Province: Alberta
