On Saturday, March 29, 2025, aged 75 years. A dearly loved husband of Barbara, much loved and respected father and stepfather of Angela, Mark, Gary, Lisa, Kerri and adored grandad to all of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Gordy laughed and joked until the very end and died as he lived, doing it his way, after a short but devastating illness. Many thanks to the staff of Ward B8 at the Christchurch Public Hospital and the wonderful staff at Ngaio Marsh. A special thank you to my amazing daughter-in-law Sian, who has somehow got me through. A private cremation has been held. Messages c/- the Williams family to 78 Brisbane Street, Waltham, Christchurch 8023. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him and no party will ever be the same without him!
