Eccles Family, I am very sorry to hear of George's passing. George and Doris used to babysit me when I was younger and George was always one to make you laugh. One thing that I will never forget is every Hallowe'en when I would go trick or treating George would always dress up, hide in the side shed and when you would walk up he would jump out and scare you silly. George was always one to make you laugh and he will be greatly missed by everyone. Unfortunately, I will be unable to attend the services as I am currently living in Thunder Bay attending University but I am thinking of you all during this hard time. Sincerly, Alyssa Eurig
