Uncle George was a wonderful man. He will be deeply missed by many people. Best known for his kindness to others.Always there to lend a helping hand.
He had a great sense of humour, was a practical joker & loved a great card game ( especially when he was winning. We all thought he cheated but nobody could ever catch him)
When he was so sick with his health issues he never seemed to complain. Now George you’re at peace. Yes Rest Easy Your Job Is Done & You Did Do It Well Forever In Our Hearts ️’s

Uncle George was a terrific man and he will always be in my memory for all of the teasing and jokes between he and Mom. The time spent in King at the old house as kids with all the family and neighbours during our formative years will never be forgotten and will be so fondly remembered. My two dogs growing up were named after Uncle George after all. He was so awesome we had George 1 and George 2. Georges smile, laugh and the way he treated us all will always be missed.
Our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Uncle George he will be missed by all who know him R.I.P Sending big hugs to the family
