Gordon of Greenwich

At a London Inheritance, some comments refer to Gordon. One in particular says "The Gordon referred to on the plaque is my old schoolmate, Gordon Oswald, who was a hairdresser at “Bavardez” in Trafalgar Road. He sadly died suddenly in December 2016, aged just 52".

There is also a link to a 2017 video of a group of his friends scattering Gordon's ashes into the Thames at the plaque's location. Gordon is described as an extremely friendly person, very attached to Greenwich, who died aged 53.
