George was a precious friend since "80's & Okotok's Days".  Norm and I kept in contact over the years until close to his passing.  Norm is now in heaven so I am completing my years alone.  God bless George's immediate and extended family.    Blessings      Marg Wyborn

Dear Richmond family     Norm and I so miss the regular phone calls we received from your dad, every month or so over the past number of years.  He was probably the most special Pastor that we ever connected with personally.    So down to earth and always ready with a willing heart to share but also to listen.    So glad we visited him in Saanich in fall of 2016.    Marg and Norm Wyborn

George was a wonderful mentor, friend and encourager to my husband Norm and myself.  We will miss the regular phone calls we received and made to one another over the last number of years.  He so showed the love of Jesus to those  he met and had contact with, a genuine Christian wonderful human being.

Pastor George and Linda were wonderful people who taught the word with power. I had just gotten saved before we came to Altona to live and I was looking for a church who would teach our children the need of knowing Jesus as Lord and Saviour. I asked Pastor George straight out if we would come to his church would they be the need of knowing Jesus as Lord and Saviour  and he said yes, so I brought them. My husband one Sunday came to church and Pastor George lead him to the Lord and my husband was delivered that day from alcohol never to drink again. Our children all accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour and we have never looked back. They taught us to be grounded in the word and bring our problems to him. Now I to am a senior and look forward to when we will fellowship again with him. A mighty man of God he was. When he would visit Altona he would look us up to make sure we were continuing in the fairh. Loved both Pastor George and Linda.
We will see him again.
Dave and Sharon
