Arnold Gore
July 12th, 1931 – September 17th, 2018

Andy passed away peacefully at the McKenzie Towne nursing home on September 17th, 2018 at 2:22 AM just shy of passing on the same date as his twin Reginald who left this earth on September 16th, 1982.

Andy was born in 1931 in London, England to Caroline Amelia Quick and Walter George Gore and immigrated to Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1959. He served as a cook in the Royal Air Force in England. He managed pubs and worked at a Resort in England and worked in a bakery when he first came to Calgary. He became an appliance repair man and worked for McMillan and Sons and later worked for Eaton's for many years. He started his own appliance repair company called AAA Appliance Repair in 1977. He retired in 1995 at the age of 64.

Andy loved to fish especially in the Highwood River and was an avid watch and clock collector.

He was predeceased by his brothers: Reginald (his twin), John, Harry, Wally and Eddy, his sister Ivy. He is survived by his sister Eileen (Cambridge, England), his wife Simone (Calgary) of 46 years, his step children: Kevin (Susan), Kirk (Deb), Kerry, Michelle (Dan), Darcy (Mary), Darrell (Ana) and Tim (Kerry); grandchildren: Joshua (Kelly), Matthew, Brittany (Rob), Charles, Allen, Craig (passed away 2000), Cyril, Madeline, Mikayla, Jadon and Jesse and great-grandchildren Emily and Hailey.
