Hello Clare and family.
My apologies for contacting you at this very late stage and my apologies also, if your Gordon was not the one with whom I was involved.
I attended Waitaki Boys High School from 1953 to 1957 and had three close friends, one of whom was a Gordon Reid whose family had a farm near Totara in North Otago.
Gordon contacted me much later as the owner of S.I. Veterinary Services.
In 2013 I was involved with organising a class reunion but Gordon indicated he was not interested. My subsequent emails to him failed so sadly, I lost contact. Only now, have I found this obituary, thus this message, and offer my late condolences.
I would be grateful if you are willing respond please
