Bro. Gordon Hamilton Dickie passed to The Grand Lodge Above very suddenly at home on Tuesday 5th January. Initiated on 17th March 1981, passed on 7th April1981 and raised on 7th September 1981, we had not seen Gordon in the Lodge for a while but he had been a very enthusiastic member of No XII. He was an office bearer, a floor worker and served as Depute Master to Bro Peter R Sinclair when he was RWM between 1987 and 1989. Gordon was a computer programmer with IBM at the Greenock site and took early retirement some time ago.
In his retirement, he was very active in Cathcart Old Parish Church and, being the kind and generous person that he was spent time looking after elderly relatives. Gordon’s generosity will ensure that he should always be remembered in No XII because the solid silver pencil that is part of our Third Degree Working Tools was presented to the Lodge by him Gordon is survived by his wife Brenda to whom our thoughts and prayers go out at this sad time.
