I worked with George when he was a Regional Councillor and I worked in the Chair’s office. He was passionate, knowledgeable, and a consensus-builder. We need more people like George in this world. My condolences to his family and friends.

George was the best..class guy always a smile and a good word

Have known and been friends with George for many years. Our parents were friends way back when. We ran into each other every now and then and had a nice chat. He was a great guy, whose knowledge about most topics was unlimited and an ongoing promoter of anything Niagara Falls. My condolences to his family members.

My sincere condolences to George’s family and his many friends and colleagues. I have fond memories of our time working at CJRN and crossing paths at the NPC and at many events across Niagara especially when they involved live music.
Rest in Peace George. You will be greatly missed.

Jennifer and the Bailey Families, please accept our sincere condolences on the passing of your beloved father and grandfather. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Ellen…So sorry to hear of George’s passing. I recall the times you both came into the library when you were dating. He was such a caring, compassionate and warm person. May you find peace in all your memories. Unfortunately, your journey together was too short. Sleep in heavenly peace George.

To all of Georges Family He was an absolute treasure. Very respected and it was an honor to know him. He will be missed.

My condolences to Georges family. The advertising staff of the Niagara Falls Review (Valley Way) enjoyed his visits to our department. He always had a smile and shared his Niagara wisdom with us! He truly was the cities ambassador!
Rest in Peace!

Our condolences to Jennifer and Michael and their families. A great man that will be greatly missed. Enjoy your “wonderful life” in heaven.

My wife worked for George at the Sheraton Foxhead where he was the Manager and I worked many years with George at the Niagara Parks Commission. Always a cheerful, friendly man. An enthusiastic ambassaor for Niagara Falls and his enthusiasm was contagious. He will be missed and I wish his family comfort at this difficult time.

Our sincere condolences. Niagara has lost a great contributor to the best interest of Niagara. He will be missed by everyone who knew him.

Sincere condolences to George’s wife, children, grandchildren and sister Olive whom I worked with for many years at Nabisco/ Kraft Foods.

Hi Ellen …my condolences to you and your family from the Hawman family. 💕

Only met George once or twice through a mutual friend. He was a fine gentleman and I know he was well known throughout Niagara Falls and will be missed. He made many contributions to the Niagara Area. RIP and enjoy your eternal reward.

George was a Dear Friend and Great Neighbour to our Family. His passing is a tremendous Loss to his Family and Niagara Falls! Travel on now, George, to a “Wonderful Life” in Heaven. You will be missed, but never forgotten.

I had the privilege to both know George, but also work with him on many city events. He was a great man, and will be sadly missed.
