There is no tribute eloquent enough, nor words kind enough for our brother and uncle, George Parkin. George was bashful and brave, quietly intelligent, enthusiastic about everything undertaken by those he loved, a wry humourist with a finely honed sense of irony, a great storyteller, teacher and a true and natural leader within his community (and a gifted euchre player). George was a guidepost by which we all ought to live our lives. Although he missed Betty enormously, George filled in the void we all felt in her passing with his own generosity, graciousness, patience, wisdom and love - all the things we missed about his wonderful wife. Thanks George - you were one of a kind! With much love and affection, Shirley and Glenn Eastabrook and family.
