MUSTARD, Gordon Alexander - 90, passed away peacefully on January 4, 2018.
He was born March 17, 1927 in Brucefield, ON, where he lived until joining the Navy in 1944, stationed in England.
Upon his return, he attended Ryerson University where he studied business and eventually went on to spend 30 years as a Manager for various Ontario Government ministries.
Gord met his wife, Marian, through her father, and these true 'soul mates' were happily married for 39 years.
Together, they delighted in their extended family, renovating and decorating their homes, travelling, golfing, reading and amassing an impressive collection of slides from all their adventures.
He is survived and will be missed by his children, John and Mary Lawson, Michelle and Stephen Smyth; his grandchildren, Alysa and Harold Kim, David and Mara Ashby, Megan and Patrick Luckie, Jennifer and David Ferris, Paul Dolan, Connor Smyth and Ian Smyth; ten great-grandchildren; and his siblings, George and Margaret Mustard and Colette Mustard.
He was predeceased by his other siblings; his beautiful wife, Marian Mustard; and his children, Judi and Stan Ashby; and his grandson, Ryan Lawson.
At Gord's request, there will be no funeral service, but he will join Marian in Mount Pleasant Cemetery.
The family will hold a private celebration of life on January 7th at the home of Michelle and Stephen Smyth.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Alzheimer Society.
