Read, George Ernest
It is with heavy hearts the Read Boys announce the passing of their Larger Than Life "Dad" George in his 79th year on September 15, 2009. George has a new set of keys to a brand new Cadillac and is embarking on another journey. He will be greatly missed by Larry & Marian, Brent & Donna and Craig (aka Nick). Poppy will be fondly missed by Granddaughters Ashlie and Courtney. He will also be missed by Granddaughter Tanya and his Great - Granddaughters Zoe and Ava. George was always there for the party, and it really wasn't a party until he arrived. You never had to worry about watching your back -- he had it all the time. George spent many a day fishing on the waters of Lake Scugog and later resided at Scugog Point -- where he took all day to cut the grass and cook the chicken wings. He spent 45 years; loving every moment of it; in the overhead doors business until his retirement two years ago. He loved the warmth and bars of the Florida Keys -- they certainly won't be the same without him. George's mantra was "Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die tomorrow" and what a life it was. The Legend of George is embedded in our hearts forever......
