Our thougths go out to all of Georgechr(39)s family. We were saddened to hear of his struggle. I am the daughter of Lindachr(39)s cousin, Cecile Grant. George and Linda looked after me when my mother visited my father in Halifax when I was 14 years old. I remember George as such a warm and happy person. I remember thinking he was the gentlest man I ever met. He was so gentle and patient with the kids, "Chrissy" and Mike and ever eager to please Linda. What a warm and welcoming place to be as a teenager. Our condolences from our family to yours.

Dear Linda and family. It is with great sadness that we send this message. George was a wonderful kind hearted man as you already know. Sorry we could not attend the service but we do know that George would understand as this is calving season and someone had to stay back on the farm. May you all find comfort in the wonderful memories George leaves behind. Take Care of each other and we hope to see you all very soon.

Dear Aunt Linda, Christine and Michael,
I was very saddened to hear of Dear Uncle Georgeââ?‰?¢s passing. Please accept my sincerest condolences for your loss.
Uncle George held a very special place in my heart. When I was a little girl I remember sitting at the kitchen table at Nanny Perryââ?‰?¢s house in PEI listening to him tune his guitar. When he had finished he gave it a good strum, made a joke (in French). My mom, his sister Margaret broke into laugher and then with wild abandon, Uncle George launch into a toe tapping tune. Everyone in the kitchen joined in. There was joy, frivolity, ruckus laughter even a bit of spoon playing. I didnââ?‰?¢t understand French but that didnââ?‰?¢t matter one bit. This happy family memory has stayed with me throughout my life.
Another thing I remember and respected about Uncle George was his Service to Canada. Over the years when Christmasââ?‰?¢s came and the families would gather, he was away a lot. His presence was always missed. What an extraordinary sacrifice on his part and that of his family. He worked far away from those he most wanted to be with, so that we might all enjoy our warm homes and Peace in our hearts. We are so grateful to those who hear and answer the call.
Every year I perform Remembrance Day Tributes around this time. Proof that the minstrel gene runs in our family. I plan to dedicate this years Remembrance Day performance, Friday Nov 11th 2011 In honour of Uncle George, his service and to his family. It is my way of remembering Never to Forget what some do for the many.
I hope you are comforted by the knowledge that so many loved and respected Uncle George and find peace in enduring words of that famous Vera Lynn tune, ââ?¬Ã
?Weââ?‰?¢ll meet againââ?¬ÃÂ.
What a wonderful thought.
God Bless.
