Thinking of you at this sad time. Parkinson’s is a debilitating disease . I admired your Dad . He never complained and could always find a smile on days that I’m sure we’re difficult for him . Find comfort in the loving care you gave him .

To the Gorra Family: Our sincere condolences in the loss of one so dear to all of you. Jack was the nicest guy in the world, so friendly, kind & caring to everyone he met. My family and the Gorra family had a very special connection. Larry & Jack were best friends since grade school & Jack & Nancy were so good to our Mom, Lizzie. My Mom always said that Nancy was just like a daughter to her. You will miss Jack dearly but you will have wonderful memories of the love and the good times you shared with both your Mom & Dad & they will always both be close to your hearts. God Bless! Love, Clarke & Colleen Eady (Reddy)

To The Gorra Family We are so sorry to hear of Jack's passing. Our sincere condolences to all of you, and Jack's brother Ted.. I grew up in Calabogie and knew Jack all of my life. One would look a long time to find a better person than Jack Gorra. Jack bulldozed for us on many occasions and he was a genius with the dozer. He could basically get earth from a stone! Whenever you asked Jack to do a job, he was always willing to do it no matter how hard a job it was. This is a sad day, an absolute wonderful person has left this earth. We hope there is a D12 where he is going. Have a smooth ride Jack Sincerely Jim & Nancy Elliott
