POLLETT, Gordon (Gord) Pollett - Most affectionately known as Poppa, passed away peacefully at the age of 95 on July 15th, 2024, a feat he enjoyed sharing with just about everyone he met.

A forever proud Newfoundlander, Gord, one of ten siblings, came to Ontario as a young man with the love of his life, Marguerite (Marg) Pollett.

After landing in Ontario, they built a wonderful life together with their two beloved daughters, Deborah (Debbie) Wilcock (Bruce) and Dale Genuis (Ron).

His girls were the centre of his world until the arrival of his six grandchildren who stole his heart – Leighann (Jeff), Jessica, Derek (Kate), Chris (Agnes), Marisa (Jeff) and Adam (Maria).

He enjoyed a long and successful career at IBM, retiring only to graciously give all of his time and attention to his family, gifting them with countless memories full of love, joy, and inspiration.

To know Gord is to know the love that he shared for his family, which includes his wife, four brothers, Ernest (Faye) Pollett, Frank (Phyllis) Pollett, Doug (Daisy) Pollett and Fred (Sandra) Pollett, five sisters, Elsie (Joe) Pennell, Florence (Bill) Brown, Hilda (Leo) Lane, Joyce (Nelson) Pye and Helen Pardy plus many nieces and nephews and thirteen great-grandchildren.

Although he will be missed every day, there is solace in knowing that he's peacefully in Heaven playing cribbage with his wife Marg, and enjoying spirited conversations with his daughter Debbie.

The family would like to share a deep, heartfelt thank you to those who loved and cared for him at Lakeridge Gardens. The support, friendship, and deep connections he made with each of you were spoken about often. You have joined our family and have become part of the vast circle of people that touched his and our hearts. Thank YOU.

In celebration of Gord's beautiful, wonderful life, family and friends are welcome to gather on Monday, July 22nd, at McEachnie Funeral Home – 28 Old Kingston Rd. Ajax. Visitation is from 10 to 11a.m., Service 11a.m. to 12p.m., with Burial and Reception to follow.
