We are sad to announce the passing of George Stewart Northcott, 87, who died peacefully at his home in Frisco, Texas under hospice care. He is survived by his wife, Linda Insley Northcott, daughter Jackie Barnes (Sid), son David Northcott (Ida), and four grandchildren, Sarah, Sid III (Leah), David Jr., and Rose (Christian).
George was born July 13, 1934 in Cook County, Illinois, grew up in Downer's Grove, and graduated from Rutgers University in New Jersey. An accomplished businessman, he started his own printing company in Linden, New Jersey and raised his children, his proudest accomplishments, in nearby Scotch Plains. He retired to Punta Gorda, Florida, and spent his latter years in Frisco to be closer to family.
George was outgoing, charming, and a natural-born leader. He loved all sports, but was a really great golfer. He will be remembered by family and friends as a loving husband and father with a philanthropic heart who cherished his church family at Trinity Presbyterian Church in Plano, Texas.
A celebration of life will be held Sunday, February 20, 2022 at 3pm with reception to follow at Stonebriar Funeral Home, Frisco, Texas.
