The Council agreed that Gordon's contribution to the CRS has been unparalleled. His service and commitment to the society will probably never be bettered. He almost single-handedly ran all aspects of the society for several years. His vision and ambitious agenda with regards to building the team and the conference set out the path to a stronger more vibrant society that the CRS community have enjoyed in recent times. Several council members speak of the pivotal role that Gordon personally played in bringing them into the CRS.
