After a battle with cancer, Gordon MacKinnon died February 28, 2025 in Prince George.
He was born to Murdoch and Ann MacKinnon in Vancouver, BC. After graduating from Britannia High School, he married Katherine Bainbridge in 1972.

He later moved to Fort St. John, returning to Prince George on his own in 1999. There he met Priscilla Fortier, his partner and friend, for 25 years and his caregiver for the past year.
He worked his way up to General Manager at Inland Kenworth. Later he brought his interest in finance to James Western Star, working there until his retirement in 2020.
He enjoyed travel, boats and diving. Closer to home, he enjoyed cooking, hiking, gym workouts, and coffee with friends. His Mercedes and spoiling his dog Lilah were two of his favourite things.
Gordon is survived by Priscilla Fortier, his daughters Terra and Shauna (Brant) and grandchildren, Neve, Errol and Gabriel, sister Darlene and nephew Ryan.
He was predeceased by his parents and sister Sylvea.
