Peacefully at Glasgow Royal Infirmary on 30th October 2020. George, beloved husband of Alice, much loved Dad of Kirsty and Gillian and Papa to Heather, Callum and Keenan. Funeral service at Glasgow crematorium, Maryhill on 5th November at 15.45.

George was born in Bishopbriggs along with his older sisters, Jean, Margaret and Maisie. He is survived by his wife Alice, daughters Kirsty and Gillian and grandchildren Heather, Callum and Keenan. He was a member at Cawder Golf Club, where he played golf every Saturday with his friends and became a huge part of his life.

So sorry for your loss. My mum Martha Paterson was a cousin to George. As a child I remember going to Bishopbriggs to visit the family. My mum passed away last week x

I have many lovely happy memories of my Uncle George. A wonderful family man who was so easy going and easy to please. He was always happy to entertained us all at family parties with a song or two. Thinking of Alice, Kirsty, Gillian and their families at this sad time.

It was pure pleasure to have met George at Gillian and Chris’ wedding in Mexico. A real gentleman who loved to dance and have fun. My mom, Trudy and I are very sorry to hear of his passing and send prayers to all of you.

George was my brother in law and was a fantastic family man a real gentleman.
I remember in the summer of 2003 for the first and only time the whole family were together in Vancouver, George’s niece gave us the use of a huge house which she owned for the weekend after a Saturday night family reunion it was discovered the next morning that a patio glass had been broken, Catherine my sister took me downtown and we managed to get a replacement and repaired said door.
Several weeks later George received a phone call from his niece to ask who repaired the patio door as it had been broken months before hand.
RIP George never to be forgotten.
Love Stewart.

We all have our memories of George,...
For me and my boys we are so thankful we got to spend so many years together with George and Alice visiting Vancouver nearly every year since 1992. We had many great holidays together here in Vancouver but we also travelled to Whistler , Florida, Phoenix , Mexico, Palm Springs, California.
Alice and George, Kirsty and Gillian also went to Taber, Alberta many times to visit George’s family. We all stayed very close even though there was so much distance.
George we will miss you so much. You had a heart of gold. R.I.P.
Love from Linda , Scott and Taylor ❤️
