Gordon Kevin McGavin

January 13, 1964 - November 21, 2025

Tribute

Gordon Kevin McGavin was born January 13, 1964, to Georgina and David McGavin. He passed away November 21, 2025. He is survived by his parents and three siblings. 

 

Gordon was a kind and quiet man with a quirky sense of humour. People and animals were drawn to him. 

 

Gordon was not so much a baby boomer as he was a precursor to Generation X — learning to program computers, riding a skateboard, flying around in the tops of a tree, ripping down a chimney, installing a shower or organizing a workshop and building a beautiful workbench. 

 

Gordon loved working on managing his property and being outside. He was gifted in the way that he could see and solve complex situations that he encountered throughout his life. 

 

In his professional life he was an accomplished electrician, and taught himself other trades as well, from solving issues for in-floor hot water heating systems to welding, carpentry, or sorting out water supply systems and installing septic tanks, he could do it all! 

 

His family wishes to thank the medical professionals who spent so much time and energy caring for Gordon through the many challenges of his long illness. 

 

Gordon’s memory is in the hearts of us who loved him and of those who knew him. He was loved.
