To Craig, Glynis and families:
This condolence comes a bit late; we missed the visitation due to not hearing on time.
George called every Christmas season to send greeting through the phone lines. Great neighbours for so many years, couldn’t ask for better.
Asking the Lord to send peace and comfort in those difficult moments.
Blessings, Peter and Betty DuChene
I just read about George passing today. He was such a nice man and knew him and Thirza since 1968 as I worked at Union Gas also. The last time I saw George was a couple of years ago when he attended retirees Christmas party and he made the effort to come to my table to give my a big hug. He was a real gem and I will never forget him. My sincere condolences to all the family to a guy well liked.

I just found out about George's passing today, and wanted to extend my deepest sympathy to the family. George was one of my first Supervisors at Union Gas 30 years ago and I absolutely adored him. George loved his family deeply and was such a proud husband, dad and grandpa. When George retired he gave a tea cup and saucer to all the ladies in HR, all from his personal collection from many nights spent at auctions. I still have that cup & saucer! Sorry for your loss Allen Family.
George Allen was a class act in every way. Deeply loved his wife, his children and managed a long successful career at Union Gas. He was full of fun and embraced all of life's experiences. George will be deeply missed by all that had the honour to know him.
Our condolences to the family,
Lorie and Steve Baker

Glynis, Jay and families,
So very sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I worked with Thirza at the Riverview office and at Head Office with George. They were both such warm and friendly people. George always had a smile on his face. He will be missed.

I worked with George in the 80’s and 90’s in HR at Union Gas. He was a very kind man with a quick smile. When I left the company, he gave me a beautiful cup and saucer with shamrocks on it that he got at an auction. I have moved it with me all the way to Florida and treasure fond memories of George whenever I look at it.
My prayers are with your family.

To Glynis, Jay and family
Sending our deepest sympathy in the passing of your wonderful father and grandfather.
I miss seeing him on his porch on Arnold street and having our lovely conversations. He was always happy to see the "girls" (bouviers) as we walked by.
Rest in peace Mr. Allen, you are a true gentleman.
Love The Jeffrey's
Craig, Kim, Glynis, Jay and families -
We are so very sorry to hear of George's passing.
George and Thirza both hold a special place in my heart. I was able to have a visit just a couple months ago with George. When I sat beside him that day, I told Thirza I was just sitting in
"her chair" for a minute. We shared some memories from Union Gas. I'm so glad I was able to have that conversation with him. He was a bright light, both at work and away from work.
My husband Jeff and I, enjoyed working with George very much. He was certainly be missed.
It was such a pleasure to have known George & Thirza, Craig & Glynis, through our Union Gas family. Such caring, compassionate people. Cherish the memories.
To Craig and Glynis, and all of your family- so sorry for the loss of your Dad and Grandfather. Sending special thoughts to all of you. Sincerely- Cathy Ross
Our deepest condolences Glynis, Craig and families. Your father was a sweet man and always had a kind word whenever we saw him. We enjoyed working on the White Elephant table each year at the bazaar. He will be greatly missed! Our thoughts are with you all.
Glynis, Jay, Dharma & Hayden
We are so sorry to hear about your dear sweet father/Grandpa. He was such an incredible loveable teddy bear and Caitie shared many heartfelt stories about him over the years. What an amazing father you had Glynis. The love you all had for him was felt when Caitlin told me all those stories. So much love. What a family. Our prayers and thoughts are with you now.
