To George’s family and friends
I would like to offer my condolences on George’s passing.
A familiar face around town, always eager to talk.
My condolences to all of George’s family, extended family and friends. I met George last Feb when I moved from Toronto to Exeter. My cousin had already told me about George, the artist, because I am also an artist. In June, George approached me to ask if I’d be interested in entering an art contest in Goderich. I was shocked and honored! Off we drove in August to Goderich after George chose my crewel work. I really enjoyed listening to George’s stories and experiences. I noticed last week his painting hanging in the United Church where I sing. He was an amazing man and artist. I was able to tell him what an incredible human being he is and was at the hospital. I miss you already, George… my friend.
Sorry to hear about this. George loved playing cards and talk about what he was working on. Sorry for your loss.
I would like to say thank you on behalf of George’s immediate family thank you so much for embracing Georgie letting him find himself here in Exeter as I see everyone come to visit him in the hospital has a shown me how loved he was here. I am so proud of him and what he has accomplished here in Exeter with every one of you accepting him for who he is and what he has become.
So thank you to all Georgie‘s friends
Thank you.
Well my friend, I once told you were like a brother I never had. I also told you at the start of this I would walk with you till you took your last breath. My promise to you was granted. I remember that morning March 21, 2026 at around 8:45am like it was yesterday.
Within minutes of your passing the sun came out for a brief time. Like you were sending us a message that you have crossed over that god made you and angel, and gave your wings to fly free.
That you are my friend.
Rest in peace
Fly high like and eagle
Till we meet again
