George was born in Enchant March 31, 1925. He was extremely proud to have called the Enchant community home his entire life. His passion was for his family, his friends and he was a huge fan of sports. George believed that John Deere, Hereford cows and Dodge trucks was what this world should have been made of. He was a quick witted tease that will never be forgotten.
If friends so desire, memorial tributes in George’s name may be made directly to the Enchant Community Hall, General Delivery, Enchant, Alberta T0K 0V0 or to the Enchant Senior’s Centre, General Delivery, Enchant, Alberta T0K 0V0.
