Gord Brown a pleasure to work with
Re: Federal Conservative MP Gord Brown dead at 57, May 2.
As a volunteer who worked in Gord Brown’s election office on many of his campaigns, I would like to say it was a pleasure working with Gord. He showed up on several occasions with a box of Timbits and his usual smile and personality to thank everyone for helping him out.
He will be missed.
