It is with great sadness that we announce that George has left us to be reunited with his beloved Rita (November 4, 2011). Predeceased by his parents George and Lou and his sister Ida. Left to mourn him are his two brothers, Claude and Kenneth Dale of Brighton, Ont. and two sisters-in-law and two brothers-in-law in the Isle of Man. He will be remembered by several nieces and nephews and sadly missed by many longtime friends. George was a 38-year veteran of the Canadian Air Force in the Food Service branch. He was stationed in several bases in Canada and four times in Europe, ending his career in Ottawa as Chief Warrant Officer First class. After retiring, he and Rita became Snowbirds, spending over 20 happy winters in Largo, Florida where he learned to play tennis and golf and new friendships were cultivated.
During Rita’s lengthy illness, he was her devoted caregiver and constant companion.
Cremation has taken place. At a later date, a private family interment will take place next to Rita in the Isle of Man.
