Condolence: Dan and Thom and families, your father and grandfather was a wonderful man. We first met when I was a young Crown Attorney and George a seasoned detective. He took me under his wing and we spent countless hours together preparing for and in court. George sometimes presented with a gruff exterior but inside he was a big marshmallow. He was kind and generous with the biggest heart and he will always be in mine. Rest easy Big P. Little B.

Condolence From: Sara George
Condolence: Please accept my sincere condolences. I was saddened to wake this morning and see the obituary for George. Growing up with brothers who also were policemen George soon became a part of our family and a familiar face around our dining room table. He had a contagious laugh that will not be forgotten. RIP George.

Condolence: My condolences to your family. George was the detective at forest detachment when I started 25 years ago. George knew all the "bad guys" and taught many things to many young cops. He taught many of us how to talk to people and how to treat people. His knowledge and sense of humour will be missed.

Condolence: Dan&Tom, Your dad was my ‘coach officer’ when I joined the OPP. He kept me safe and provided me with the support to ensure I was successful. My career path was cemented with George’s guidance...he cultivated my love for the job and criminal investigations! He was quite a character and I have memories that will last a lifetime. Salute to my mentor Badge #3303. I am sorry for your loss, George was one of a kind.
