George was a good friend and a great guy. We shared a love of the outdoors, hunting, and fishing. His love for life was exceeded only by his love for family. Susan and I will truly miss him in our lives.

My condolences to Janet and George's family.
I have had the pleasure to know George for many years from out beginnings at Bruce A to our working at the same vocation at Bruce B.
George was always a team player and easy to get along with. A quiet man, George still loved to tell a good story of passed experiences. He made time working in the middle of the night go much quicker.
George loved his hockey teams and we would bump into each other from time to time in the arena. I hadn't run into him for some time and sadly will miss him now.
God bless his soul he will be missed.

Doug, Kathy, Jared and Jessie

Always smiling, with the biggest heart my dad sure lived an amazing life. I feel so lucky to have had a father who put his family first above all. Our happiness was everything to him. He didn't have a mean bone in his body, he touched so many people along his path. Even during the most unfair obstacle he was handed this year he was still positive. Still smiling and friendly to everyone he met. I am so proud of his courage. I'll miss his sarcasm and the way I could just sit in silence with him yet still feel an overwhelming sense of comfort.
