I would like to extend my deepest condolences to Anne, (Wesley, Arlene, Bruce and your spouses) on the passing of George. As well, to George's siblings, grandchildren, and existing family of cousins, nieces and nephews. George was a true gentleman, businessman and friend. I can still see him backing down the driveway at the cottage at Doug and Arlene's. He was a master of conversation, and a pleasure with whom to share time. A great sense of humour, and the pride he demonstrated to be a patriarch of the "Braun Clan" will be missed. I wish your family, all the best as you mourn George's passing. - Posted by: George Maneluk (friend) on: Aug 20, 2017

I have had the privilege of knowing George for 27 years. We used to usher together at Bethel Mennonite Church. He was a great friend and mentor. My condolences to his family. He will be greatly missed. - Posted by: Mark Olfert (Friend) on: Aug 20, 2017

I worked at Crosstown Credit Union while G.K. Braun had his insurance company in the same building. He was a fine man to have at my till while I worked there - 1972-1979. Deepest sympathy to the family. Edna Edwards - Posted by: Edna Edwards (Sawatsky) (friend) on: Aug 19, 2017
