Gordon Dey
On March 15, 2012 Gordon Dey passed away peacefully while holding his daughter's hand at the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice Home in Kamloops.
Born and raised in Savona, Gord followed his father by taking over the family business (Dey's Centre). Gord provided leadership for many community events. He was the charter president of the Savona Lions Club, and instrumental in the establishment of the Savona fishing Derby Association, which made significant donations to a wide variety of community ventures.
Gord sold the store and retired in 2009; looking forward to summers on the lake and winters down south. Symptoms of concern began in the spring of 2010 leading to a diagnosis of A.L.S.
Gord's struggles were inspirational as he won all the battles but eventually lost the war. He will be remembered eternally for his infectious laugh, quality jokes, and often retold one liners. He was a good friend to many.
