Irene, Sharon and I both send our sympathies to you and your family. I have good memories of George as we all worked at KCC and shared fun times in the county with the activities there.

So sorry to here about George, we send our deepest condolences. It was a pleasure working with him and yourself at KCC in McGill.
George and I were classmates in the WPHS class of 1956. I remember his smile, so very natural and easy. We would meet at class reunions, and it was always a pleasure to see him.
My sincere condolences to you all. May knowing that in Acts 24:15 Jehovah lets us know that there is going to be a resurrection where we can see our loved ones again. May this hope help give you comfort in the difficult days ahead.
