The death occurred peacefully, surrounded by family, at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital on Monday, May 23, 2022 of G. Gordon Tweedy, Q.C. of Charlottetown, age 85 years. Loving husband of Caroll (nee MacKenzie), father of David (Sandra) and John (Julie), loving grandfather “GoGo” of Kristi (Ryan) MacLeod, Courtney (Derek) Empey, Travis (Ashtin) Willis, Taylor Willis (Justin Mouflier), Tate Saulnier, and Ava Tweedy and great-“GoGo” of Regan, Declan, Cole and Noah. Brother of Jeannie Perry, uncle of Jennifer Perry (Jim Williams) and Steven Perry (Michelle Campbell) and great-uncle of Sarah and Samantha Williams and Michael and Scott Perry. Survived by cousins Scott (Joy) MacKenzie, Q.C. and their children Alexandra and Willem, and Lynda (Alex) MacKenzie Dean and their children Kaitlyn and Patrick, and best friend Brian (Anne) Gillis. Predeceased by his parents The Honourable Justice George J. Tweedy O.C., Q.C. and Kathryn (MacKenzie) Tweedy, and brother-in-law Roger Perry.
G. Gordon Tweedy was an amazing human being. He loved fiercely, forgave easily, and helped many on this crazy road called life.
Gord was proudly the first UNB Law graduate called to the Bar of Prince Edward Island on November 28, 1963.
Although law was his vocation - helping others, wood working, his tractor, his family and hockey were his passions.
Gord played hockey until he was 80 and was the biggest UNB Reds hockey fan ever.
In his middle years, Gordie started the lawyer referral/assistance program in PEI and beyond – taking it global without the internet.
Gord was a lifelong Rotarian and lived their motto “Service Above Self”. In honour of his father’s Rotary service, he started the George J. Tweedy Service Award and even crafted the award itself.
