It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Gordon Tinney. Gordon passed peacefully after a courageous battle at the Northumberland Hospital Wednesday, July 27th, 2022, at the age of 62. He leaves behind his proudest accomplishment, his children, Danielle (Derek) and Cameron (Samantha). Loved and cherished son to Robert Tinney. Pre-deceased by his mother Dorothea Tinney. Gordon will be remembered fondly by his siblings Lois (Dave) Turpin, Lillian (Brian) Darling, Carl (Wandlynn) Tinney, Stephen (Laurie) Tinney, and David Tinney. Loved uncle to his 8 nieces and nephews and 9 great nieces and nephews. Gordon will be deeply missed by all of his extended family and friends.
Gordon was a kind and generous soul. He was the friendliest guy and always wore the biggest smile. He was the life of the party. An exceptional volleyball and baseball player, there was no ball he wouldn’t go for. Average fisherman, who’s passion was always bigger than his catch. Above all, an amazing father who would do anything to make his children happy.
A private family graveside service will be held at Pioneer Cemetery, Cold Springs. A celebration of life, in memory of Gordon, will take place at the Cobourg Royal Canadian Legion Branch 133, 135B Orr Street, Cobourg, Ontario from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 6th, 2022. A sharing of memories will take place at 7:00p.m. Anyone who wishes to share a short speech or story about Gordon at the Celebration of life is asked to email the family at danielletinney@outlook.com. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the Northumberland Hills Hospital – Palliative Unit or Pioneer Cemetery (Cold Springs).

My condolences to the Tinney family, may he rest in peace.
Mike and I were saddend to hear of Gord's passing. Gord worked for Wakely's Scrap Metal, as a truck driver, up until his illness. He was a dedicated employee and an amazing person. Gord always had a huge smile. I always was happy when he was in the yard when I would go. Gord was one of the kindest men I have meant and we will miss him very much. Our heartfelt condolences to his family.

When my mom and I moved to Cold Springs in 1978 the Tinney Boy's were a big part of my life with Moto crossing, Snowmobiling, hockey on the ponds etc. They were like older brothers I never had. Gord was always so calm and collective. I recall he had a nick name which I haven't seen on the other posts but it started with a T. God bless Gord it seems like yesterday I was down at your house on Wallace Jibb Road playing caps.

Mr. Tinney, Lois, Lillian, Carl, Stephen, David and families, so sorry to hear about your Son, Brother and Uncle. Take comfort in your memories!
I first met Gord when he worked for the waste disposal. We always talked when he stopped at the house. Then we became friends when he was having his first child the same as us. Him and the kids use to stop out to fish. I remember Cameron snagging his sister in the leg with a hook. She was a champ. She let us take it out with going to the hospital. I was so sorry to hear he was sick. I was hoping he would beat it. You will be missed Gord.
Sending sincere sympathy to all of the Tinney Family. Thinking of all of you at this difficult time.
Sad to hear of Gord's too early passing. I have many happy memories of Gord from the ball field.
