Gord and his Mum

[Yuri]

Gord introduced his mother to the audience at some Massey performances years ago.
Here's another one later in his career.

I love the period where he wore a beard. Oh my, those cheekbones!!

There was a TV show that I someone sent me some years back. It was already at least 25 years old by the time I'd seen it and it featured Gord when he had only been famous for maybe a couple of years.
They interviewed his mom and dad and I remember how sweet his mother was. She sure was proud of her son.

Those CBC clips are priceless, I watch them every once in a while. My favorite is The Elwood Glover interview.
