Gordon Fredrick Bremer
A life that touched so many hearts will be forever remembered.
Obituary
Gordon Fredrick Bremer, of Sherwood Park, passed away peacefully on December 31, 2025, at the age of 68. Born January 1, 1957, Gord was a devoted husband to Liz Bremer, with whom he shared 45 wonderful years. Together they raised two daughters Lana (Son In Law Brandon) and Whitney who were a source of immense pride and joy in his life. He cherished his time spent with his 5 grandchildren Ryder, Sage, Olivia, Maxx and Emmett always keeping him on his toes between hockey and cheer. He was their biggest supporter in everything they did.
He left behind 2 sisters Vangie Treichel (Nieces Alison and Amy) and Valerie Scally (Nephews Ryan and Curtis)
Gord will be remembered by his family and friends for his steadfast presence, generosity, and genuine care for those around him always lending a helping hand. He was a jack of all trades, if you had a project no matter how big or small he knew how to do it.(His daughters always had lists of many to do's with his name on it)
He touched many lives with his kindness and dedication, always putting others ahead of himself. Whether supporting his loved ones or sharing a conversation with friends, Gord's warmth and integrity shone through in everything he did.
Gord and Liz spent time snowbirding in Mexico, and picked up a love for pickleball. They have made many amazing friends from all over the world and they continue to remain dear friends. Gord was a real sports enthusiast his entire life especially when it came to 🏈 football, golf and pickleball in his later years.
His memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him. Plans for a memorial will be shared by the family at a later date. The family encourages those who wish to honor Gord's memory to do so by spending time with loved ones and cherishing the moments they share together. Please share a memory on the memory wall❤️
A private celebration of life as per Gord's wishes will be held at a later date.
He will be dearly missed.

Saying goodbye to my brother Gordon who passed away suddenly on December 31 feels unreal and so hard. I never imagined a world where I would have to live without him in it and nothing can fill that emptiness. My heart feels shattered, and there is a space inside me that will never be the same.
Even though my heart hurts, I am so grateful to have been his sister. I am thankful for every memory and every moment we shared.
Gordon had such a talent for fixing things. He had special skills that he could help anyone repair anything. No matter what was broken, he could figure out how to fix it. But what stands out most is how Gordon used that gift to help others.
Gordon loved action sports and was always willing to try something new. Sundays were his days…sports on all day, no interruptions. Baseball was one of his favourites, but he didn’t limit himself. He’d try any sport just for the experience. Pickleball was the last one he took on, and of course, he enjoyed that too. That was him always curious, always moving.
When Gordon was born, Mom almost named him Elvis because of his long, dark sideburns. As he got older, the name fit him even more. He loved Elvis, his music and dancing and shook his hips just like Elvis, and that never stopped. He carried that love of Elvis with him, his music, his moves and that joy he had when he danced.
Gordon always filled the room with so much energy, laughter and kindness and that drew people to him. He had a presence that could light up any room the moment he walked in. Gordon always made others feel welcome, seen, and taken care of. He was such a people person.
My love for Gordon didn’t end when he left this world. It will live on in my heart for the rest of my life and in everyone whose life he touched. Until we meet again you will forever be my brother. I love you.

I am sending you my deepest condolences, Liz, Whitney, and Lana.
I am so sorry to hear about Gord. He was an amazing father, and I will always be grateful for the years your family was a “second” family to me. From coaching me in ringette and hockey to becoming such a big part of my life during my teenage years, he had a lasting impact on me.
Your door was always open, and he always made me feel welcome in your home.
I have so many fond memories with your family and am deeply thankful for everything Gord and your family did for me while I was growing up. It truly shaped me as a person and helped make me who I am today.
Sending your entire family all my love during this incredibly difficult time. I will always cherish the memories I have with all of you.
Much love,
Vanessa Stobart (Taylor)

My brother Gordon passed away suddenly at the age of 68 while spending the winter in Mexico. His passing leaves a space that cannot be filled, but also a lifetime of memories that will always remain with me. It still doesn’t feel real.
My Mom was alone going through labour except for me. It was the start towards meeting my brother Gordon. As she waited for her labour to progress I stayed with her keeping her company. I stayed with her until she left for the hospital coming home a few days later with Gordon in her arms.
From early childhood onward, he was rarely still, always living in motion. He loved sports of all kinds—hockey, baseball, football, curling, and more recently, pickleball. He not only watched but participated himself. Being active wasn’t just something he did; it was part of who he was and because of this he always ended up in the ER for stitches from driving his trike into a parked car and almost losing his ear or riding his bike through a stop sign and being hit by a car. He was always sporting bumps and bruises because he didn’t move at any speed except fast forward. As an adult, that same energy showed itself in his constant need to stay busy—building things for his family, fixing what needed repair, and always finding a way to be useful and involved.
Gordon was a true lover of animals, and there was almost always a dog by his side. That companionship reflected his gentle and loyal nature—he gave his heart fully, whether to family, friends, or his beloved four-legged buddies.
Like all siblings, we had our differences of opinion, but they never lasted. What always remained was love. I am especially grateful that in the days and weeks before his passing, we shared many messages back and forth. Those conversations mean more than I can say and that knowledge is a comfort I will carry with me always. He knew he was loved, and I knew he loved me in return.
Love you and miss you Gordon❤️

I was so sorry to hear about your loss. I’ve been thinking of you and your family and wanted to reach out.
It has been many years since I was last in touch, but Lana and Whitney were such a big part of my childhood, and I carry many fond memories of your whole family from those years. I hope it brings even a small comfort to know that Gord is remembered warmly!!

We are still having a hard time processing that Gord is no longer with us. We truly thought we would all grow old together. Like us, family was everything to Gord and Liz — it always came first.
We met them at Black Bull while they were camping there, and they were always so gracious and kind. I will never forget one summer when my senior indoor cat snuck out of our trailer and went missing. We were frantic. I posted her picture on the Black Bull webpage and asked everyone to keep an eye out — and it was pouring rain.
A short while later, we heard a knock at our door. When we opened it, there was Gord standing in the pouring rain, wearing a raincoat, asking questions about our missing cat. I think my heart grew ten sizes that day.
Albert and I enjoyed golfing with Gord and Liz many times. Gord was such a perfectionist and so hard on himself — always trying to hit the ball straighter and farther.
Gord made this world a better place by being the incredible person he was. We already miss him so much. He was an incredible partner, father, grandfather, and friend — always willing to help anyone at any time. The world has lost a truly remarkable human being.
Hugs to Liz and the Bremer family

Gord, what to say about this amazing man. I will try and keep this under a few hundred words.
I first met Gord and Liz 18 years ago. Right off the hop I was accepted by both of them as the new guy on the block. He was as it says, always there if you needed a hand or advice on something. I got shit many times for driving by their house in Calgary and not stopping. It became a regular stop, my wife knew if I was late coming home. She knew to come over. Liz I think rolled her eyes a few times when she opened the garage door, she then laughed and closed the door. We had many great talks in the garage, many laughs on the deck, many great laughs in the above ground pool / hot tub. Think it was 97 degrees on occasion, a few great trips to Mexico and Vegas. Always a class act and always always happy to see you. Good bye old friend, you will be missed by everyone you touched.
