George M. Greek
George M. Greek 1931 - 2007 George Melbourne Greek, December 17, 1931. Best friend, companion, and beloved husband of Sheelagh (Cussons) for 22 years, passed away at The Moncton Hospital on Saturday, October 27th, 2007. His son Jeff will cherish the memory of George's unconditional love. Their fondest memories will be of George smiling as he donned his apron and a cowboy hat by the BBQ at their home or at the campsite. Admired by all who knew him, George's humour and integrity will long stay in the hearts of his family, friends, and community. He has carried to all his beginnings and his love for Lunenburg. Calling on his worldly travels, and encyclopedic knowledge, George would never shy away from a good debate. George lived his values as a respected co-worker at Co-op Atlantic where he worked for 35 years and through his volunteer work in the Co-operative Movement which exemplified his belief in equality, equity and mutual self-help. George is survived by his beloved wife Sheelagh and their son, Jeff; daughter-in-law, Suzanne; and granddaughters, Anabel and Mia. George is also survived by a large family, including his brothers, Ivan (Audrey), Ray (Joan); his sister, Joanne Ullock (late Tommy); his mother-in-law, Connie Cussons (late Bill); many brothers/sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces, grandnephews, and grandnieces; two daughters, Gloria and Margot; and granddaughter, Carmen, were always in George's heart. George is predeceased by his parents, Venice and Juanita (Tanner) Greek; and his brothers, Gerald (Carol) and Lenny (Mona) of Blue Rocks, Nova Scotia. The family wishes to thank the dedicated staff of the Moncton Hospital for their care and compassion during George's stay. Visitation will be held at Fair Haven Funeral Home on Wednesday, October 31 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9pm.
