Gordon Eldred Richardson . . .

       Gordon Eldred Richardson passed away peacefully at the Dundas Manor on July 17, 2025, after a long illness. He was surrounded by the comfort of family and the caring staff of the Manor in his final days.

        Gord, beloved husband of Sharon (née Christie), was a devoted and loving father to Corrie (Gary) and to his late son Brett (Ann), who sadly predeceased him. He was a treasured grandfather to Olivia, Elizabeth, Owen, and Frannie, whose presence brought immense joy to his life. The son of Lola (Shaver) and Eldred Richardson, Gord is survived by his sister Gail Gerritsen (the late Herm) and his sister-in-law Karen Richardson. He was predeceased by his brother Gary.

        Gord took pride in his work as a dedicated cash cropper and poultry farmer.  He managed an egg farm with the same values he lived by: honesty, loyalty, and a tireless work ethic.

In his younger years, Gord was active in sports, and as he got older, when not hard at work, Gord could be found on the golf course or watching hockey. Even during his time at the Manor, he looked forward to Hockey Nights in Canada.

       Known for his straightforward nature and quiet strength, Gord earned the respect and trust of all who knew him.  He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.  His family would like to extend special thanks to the hardworking staff at Dundas Manor and his medical team.  

In keeping with Gord’s wishes there will be no visitation or service. 

        Donations to Dundas Manor would be gratefully acknowledged by the family.  If you are making your donation online or by cheque directly to the charity, please include the following note with your gift “please notify the family”.
