John P. Louchheim (CC, now GH–Grace Hooper College) Reports on the Passing of Gord Farrimond (also CC)
May 30, 2017 in In Memoriam, Notes, Recent Deaths
“Thought you might want to know: Gord Farrimond passed away on 1/22/17. He died unexpectedly of cardiac endocarditis, having endured months of suffering (but thinking it was a bad case of the flu).
“He left 10.5 grandkids, a lovely and very kind wife, three children and two more stepchildren, a sister and her family, a church-full of friends, and a hugely loving extended family behind.
“At Yale, Gord was a varsity hockey player and a good soul, though a pretty mediocre poker player, from 1968 – 1972. He led some of us into and out of trouble through those years, and he held life’s treasures in deep regard.
“He found goodness throughout his time on earth: financially, spiritually, and interpersonally. He taught me, our circle of young adults, his children, and most who knew him a lot about what’s truly important in life.
“We miss him.”
John P. Louchheim, ’72.
