Death notice for the town of: Wingham, Province: Ontario
George was a loyal customer and a great friend to many of us here at Colonial Acres Coins. Over the past 15-20 years George has been making his way from Blyth down to our store here in Kitchener after visiting his apartments here in town. We always enjoyed sitting with George and sharing countless stories and jokes over the years, whether it was complaining about Golfing, talking about Old cars, the economy or just the weather we always enjoyed Georges company. George was a man full of knowledge and enjoyed sharing his thoughts and outlooks on life. I’ll never forget the first time I visited George at his home in Blyth, he said, “if there are 5 cars in the driveway I am not home”.. It was then that I realised that George had a “hobby” for collecting vehicles and pretty much anything that he deemed may be useful or is a great deal! I have shared many cold beers with George over the years on my way to Goderich and got to meet many of George’s close friends. He will be missed deeply by us all.
Our Sincere Sympathy to his Family and Friends.
-Kirk, Todd, and all the Staff at Colonial Acres Coins.
