Gordon and Erica were dear friends for 55 years. Gordon took an interest in our family as they grew up and they, in turn, respected him greatly. My Eric and Gordon had a deep and meaningful relationship, trying to solve business and world problems. Goodbye dear friend. I hope you find Eric in heaven so you can carry on where you left off. My condolences to Colin, Stephen and Jenny from Kath

Thanks for being a good mate over the years Gordon, going way back to when you use to call in and catch up with our Dad Jim to reminisce on the days up at Cashmores Mill. You were always giving with your time and never thought twice, letting borrow whatever I needed researching Dad's early life from when he first started with Cashmore Bros Limited in 1936. We certainly had a few laughs along the way. Most of all, thanks for the phone calls out of the blue, just to say 'hello, how're you going?" last one being only a couple of months ago,
