George had many hobbies. George was an avid outdoorsman and loved spending time hunting, fishing, quadding and snowmobiling. He enjoyed going for coffee with friends and looked forward to traveling to warm destinations in the winter. George loved watching sports and cheering for the Winnipeg Jets, Blue Bombers and Toronto Blue Jays. Spending time with his grandchildren and volunteering at the Open Door Church were high priorities for George.
