George Malboeuf

The family of George Malboeuf announces with great sadness the sudden passing of George on April 17, 2012. George was born on August 15, 1915 in Daysland, Alberta.

Predeceased by his first wife Viola, and infant daughter, Angela. Survived by his second wife Annie, his children Wayne, Carol, Tom, Dave (Jane), Heather and Diane. He was the proud grandfather of four grandsons, James (Danielle), Kadin, Rylan and Tyler. Also one great granddaughter Desiree, and two great grandsons, Evan and Dylan.

In his younger years, he farmed before moving to the Comox Valley with his first wife in 1950. He worked in forestry for many years until he took a position with the Department of Highways, where he worked for 30 years.

He spent countless hours in his garden. He enjoyed the hobby of wood working and carpentry. He enjoyed dancing. At a dance he met Annie and they were later married. George loved his children and his grandchildren and was proud of all of their accomplishments.

A celebration of life will be held at Piercy’s Mt. Washington Funeral Home on Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 2:00pm with a reception to follow.

George’s children would like to thank the staff on First Floor Inpatient at St. Joseph’s Hospital for the excellent care and compassion given to him and us during his last few days. We will miss you Dad.
