It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of Gordon Little, at Dunnville War Memorial Hospital, after a battle with leukemia. Much loved father of Sheryl Ferris-Little (Dave) and Grandfather of Brad Robertson, Katie Robertson (Jake) and Jaime Ferris. He was predeceased by his beloved wife, Nina, and daughter, Sharon (Ann). Predeceased by his father, Herbert Little, step-mother, Verna Little, and brother, John Little (Sheila). Born in Hamilton, Gordon was raised in Caledonia by his father, and grandmother, Rachel (Abbey) Little. He became a police officer, originally with the Waterford Police, the Simcoe Police, and eventually the Haldimand-Norfolk Regional Police, where he retired with the rank of Inspector after a long career. Gord also participated in charitable work over the years. He was a former Chairman of the Board of Haldimand War Memorial Hospital. He worked with Crime Stoppers of Haldimand Norfolk and the Ontario Trillium Foundation, and was a former member of the Dunnville Lions Club and a current member of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 142. In recent years, Gord enjoyed spending time with friends at the Legion, going out to lunch with his grandchildren, and watching TV with his cats. The family would like to thank the amazing nurses at Haldimand War Memorial Hospital and St. Joseph’s Hospital for the care he received during his illness. We would also specifically like to thank Dr. Ayoob for his end of life care and his family doctor, Dr. Ezzat. In lieu of flowers, in memoriam donations to the Dunnville Hospital and Healthcare Foundation would be appreciated by the family. This was a foundation he firmly believed in.
