I first met Gordon in 1984. I was a civil servant working in Chester, and I got a transfer to Exeter. My boss was John Rice, Gordon's brother, Without any pressure of any kind, John suggested that if I needed any help with the move, he would speak to Gordon. I took up his suggestion and met Gordon, who helped us in so many ways with the move. We think of him often, with great affection.
May he rest in peace.
