Edward
Royal
(October 4, 1952-March 9, 2008)
Our dear friend Gord passed away peacefully, at home, during
his Sunday afternoon nap after a long, courageous and dignified
fight against cancer. He was triumphant in the face of inevitable
defeat for he valued Friendship above all else, and the value
of his Friendships was never more unassailable than at his life's
end. Kind, loving, fun, surprising, honest, dedicated, dependable,
all those wonderful qualities bundled into one great person.
Predeceased by his father and mother, Clarence and Dorothy
SIM
and nephew Richard
REID. He is survived by his sister Patricia
REID
(Don,) nephew Rod
REID (Heather) and their children Parker
and Brooklyn; Uncle and Aunt, Ted and Celia
GRIGG, cousins Janine
LEACH/LEECH/LEITCH (Peter), Kenneth
GRIGG (Sue) and Catherine
FREIVOKH and
their families, and his godchildren: Morgan
McCONVILLE,
Scott
TINDLE, Willie
SCOTT, Peter
SEHMER, and Taylor
JACKSON. Gord
had an incredible circle of Friends from every spectrum of his
rich life, but in particular his family would like to thank his
oldest Friends for their support and care in the last year: John
and Mary McCONVILLE,
Blake and Dorie
POTTINGER, Maud
KILLAM,
Cathy NOEL, Margaret
ROBINSON, Robyn
WOODWARD, and Peter
ARMSTRONG.
The support and love Gord has had from his many Friends in the
class of 1970 at St. George's, colleagues from his years in federal
politics, and from Friends at Rocky Mountaineer Vacations has
been much appreciated. We would also like to thank Doctor John Sehmer,
and the physicians and staff of the British Columbia Cancer Agency.
Gord's political career began with the Young Conservatives of
Canada. He graduated from University of British Columbia - Class
of 1974 and worked for many years for the Hon. John Fraser, P.C.,
O.C., OBC, Q.C. in Ottawa and Vancouver before joining the
Rocky Mountaineer Vacations as a train manager for the last 14 years.
Gord served on the boards of numerous community organizations
and was a life long participant in the campaigns of many civic,
provincial and federal candidates. Gord looked as great decked
out in his kilt for the Sir John A. MacDonald Society as he did
riding with Friends at Douglas Lake. A bit of a George Hamilton,
our Gord liked to tan year round either in some exotic local
or on the sunny shores of Savary and Gambier Islands. He enjoyed
traveling, watching the Canucks, celebrating the achievements
of loved ones, and cooking dinner for Friends. He has left us
with amazing memories. 'How wonderful life is when you're in
the world' surely was written for our Gord. In lieu of flowers
donations may be made in Gord's memory to the British Columbia
Cancer Foundation. A service in memory of Gord will be held at
Saint Mary's Anglican Church at 2490 W. 37th in Vancouver on March 25,
2008 at 3: 00 p.m.
