My sympathy to Mr Snowdon’s family.
What a beautiful, clever, humorous, caring man.
I treasure my student/teacher relationship with him when he was Principal at Goold College and hold fond memories.
Rest In Peace Mr Snowdon

Thank you so much to all of Uncle Gordon's family for the opportunity to watch his funeral mass online. It was such a lovely service. I will always have fond memories of Uncle Gordon playing cards with Nanna and Nonno. Thinking of you all at this difficult time.

Gordon Snowdon was a wonderful Principe during my time at Gould College. Changed and improved the old school St Agnes into a great school for girls. Greatly appreciated my schooling there under his guidance. Sincerest condolences to the family.

Gordon (Mr Snowden) as I knew him as a young teacher moving to Geelong, gave me an interview and job over the phone as the Geelong Road flooded and I couldn’t get there. A predecessor to ZOOM. He made things happen. Gordon was an incredible Principal whose compassion. dedication and genuine love for his students and staff was always at the forefront, He certainly shaped my teaching and understanding that it is important always to consider individuals and their circumstances. Condolences to the Snowden extended family. Sorry I can’t be at the funeral as I am away. It will no doubt be a wonderful celebration of an incredible man and his legacy. God Bless.
