Tribute

Nina Gordon In the evening of November 27, 2017, after a short, brave battle with cancer, Grandma Nina passed, surrounded by her loving family and friends. Nina lived her life, right to the end, with grace and dignity. She will be eternally loved by husband, Bob, children Garner (Rhonda), Nadine (Daryl) and Jared (Andrea), grandchildren Corey (Kristal), Brody, Robin, Gemma, Ava and Brier, great-grandson Henry, brother Carl (Roxie) Hagman, Niece Angela, Nephew Dwayne (Suzanne) and close friends Lindy and Rick Jones. Born in Vancouver in 1940, Nina lived on Texada Island since arriving as a young girl. She had a brilliant mind, a kind heart and a green thumb. She was a talented pianist, a constant reader of books, a spectacular baker of pies and a phenomenal wife, mother and grandmother. The family wants to thank the staff at the Powell River General Hospital, particularly the nursing staff on the 4th floor, who could not have been kinder or more attentive. And a special thank-you to Dr. Black, Susan, Roxanna and Kyline for their excellent care during Grandma Nina’s stay at home. In lieu of flowers, a donation to Texada Health Centre is appreciated.
