  • Dear George you will be missed. Will miss your and marks visits and the long talk we used to have the one visit that you made and ended up staying for Christmas was very memorable the funniest story that I remember you telling me was about when you asked Odd to marry you and you and my dad had bought the same engagement ring and when you gave it to Odd she said that's like Mary's so you had to return it for a different one. I will miss you very much. Will always love you and keep you in my heart Love Tammy - Posted by: tammy macclure (niece) on: Sep 23, 2012

  • Our family would like to give our heart felt condolences to all of the family for the loss of a very dear man. Uncle George will be missed greatly. I have so many great memories of him from when I was growing up. We would go to Winnipeg every summer vacation. We always went camping with Uncle George and Auntie Audrey and if it wasn't camping it was berry picking or Grand Beach, whatever we did it was always fun. Uncle George I will miss you so much, you certainly are loved by many. Now you are with your beautiful wife again. Rest In Peace. I love you... - Posted by: Kimberly and Gene Heather (Neice) on: Sep 23, 2012
