He moved to Sudbury, ON and became a hockey official and his next move was to Los Angeles, CA where he continued to officiate. He was an auto insurance adjuster and on retirement, moved to Desert Hot Springs, where he spent many days watching football and hockey and keeping track of all CFL games. George we will miss your stories and jokes but our memories will be forever. Cremation has taken place and at George's request, his ashes will be scattered over Puget Sound, WA were he spent many days fishing with his son-in-law Craig.
