Obituary of Gordon Alfred Reid
It is with great sadness that the family of Gordon A. Reid announces his passing which occurred on Friday, September 3, 2021, at the Saint John Regional Hospital. Born November 4, 1959, in Montreal, Quebec, he was a son of the late Gordon and Stephanie (Dawson) Reid.
Gordon was a graduate of St. Malachy’s High School and St. Mary’s University. He began his career with the community living board, he learned the granite trade while living in Alberta and was a sales representative for Grand & Toy. He was currently employed at TD Insurance.
Gordon was a home body, family-oriented man, who adored his wife and two daughters. He enjoyed camping, playing board games, shooting pool, playing poker and many crib games with his camping buddy. He was an avid reader and history buff. He’s been a Toronto Raptors fan since the team began and was thrilled to see them win their first-ever championship.
