Beloved husband of Helen (nee Gelinas) of Sequin. Dear Son of Harry Harbar and Katrina Harbar-Felyo (predeceased), Loving father of Kimberly (husband Jim Karges), Mardy-Lee (husband Kevin Speers) both of Sequin, Cheryl (Husband Dale MacLean) of Vancouver, Georgina (husband Brian Casey) of Newmarket and Leah of Ancaster. Dear Grandpa of Christon, Bradley, Jason (predeceased), Brittany, Ryan, Sean, James and Brianna, Cherished great-grandfather “Poppa George” of Nicola, Victoria, Cassandra, Sofia, Christopher, Michael, Lucas, Selena and Iona.
He was raised in Capreol and he married his sweetheart Helen in 1957. Helen and George raised their 5 daughters in Capreol and then retired on the Lake in Seguin. He was a hard worker and a jack of all trades, he held several labor positions until he settled into a career with Canadian National Railway and VIA Rail. He retired from VIA Rail as a Conductor in 1995. He loved spending time fixing up the cottage and in his later years he could always be found tinkering at his many projects. He loved the outdoors and in the early years one of his favourite Sunday afternoon outings was packing the Ford pickup and loading the girls to Portelance Road to pick mushrooms.
His passion for collecting coins and his many Railway hats and pins were a testament to his appreciation for history and the simple joys of life. He had a possessive heart for Helen and his 5 girls and will always be remembered for his devoted protection which came from his unwavering love. His spirited personality and his rough around the edges charm made him larger than life. He will be sadly missed but will be fondly remembered sitting under his favorite cedar trees, gazing at the Lake, soaking in the tranquility and enjoying a cigar.
Rest in peace George, you will be dearly missed but forever in our hearts. Cremation arrangements entrusted to Torrance Funeral Home (89 Bowes St., Parry Sound). We would like to thank all the Staff at both the West Parry Sound Health Centre and Lakeland Long Term Care for their kindness and support over the years. If desired, donations to Lakeland Long Term Care would be appreciated.
