Obituary For Gordon Otto

It is with great sadness we announce that Gordon Otto, a wonderful husband, brother and friend, and longtime resident of Woking, passed away peacefully in Spirit River, on Tuesday, August 22, 2017, at the age of 90 years.

Gordon was born November 12, 1926 in Spirit River, AB. He married Noemi “Joe” Floreani on July 6, 1961. Gordon and Noemi took over the family farm and resided there until 2015. They then moved to Spirit River. They were married for 56 years.

Gordon loved carpentry. He could build a house or renovate your home. He was a master carpenter.

Gordon loved to collect and catalogue ancient arrowheads and spearheads which he found on his land. He donated most of his collection to the Spirit River Museum.
