Uncle Bill my fondest memories of you are of the family life that you & Auntie Joy shared with me as a child during my many visits to my Dad in Victoria in the 1960's. Uncle Bill you always made everyone feel good with your positive, fun, storytelling. Thank-you for including us in your life. We miss you. Matt Odette & family

My fellow friend and Celt, may the years we spent with the Celtic club be ever in my thoughts, especially the heavenly sound of our choir. Your friendship meant so much to me, the only Welshman in the choir. You gave the orders, I did the singing?? God be with you among the heavenly hosts." - John Williams (Taffy)"We all miss Bill so much. He was always the voice of reason at our meetings as well as being so very willing to help out in every possible way he could. We extend our deepest sympathy."

If, at the end, all we have left is love, look around at the trees around us and THERE is love.

A dear brother.

To say I knew Bill Georgeson does not seem enough. He was one of the nicest and most loving people I have ever met and I will miss him greatly. Being my brother-in-law we got to know each other pretty well over fifty odd years and have shared many experiences together. The one that sticks in my mind was a short trip to a medical clinic in Duncan where a certain procedure was allowed which was not available in Ireland or Scotland. We returned to Victoria satisfied but a little sore. I can truthfully say that I have never seen Bill in a bad mood or say anything that would make another person feel uncomfortable. He always had a happy smile and a firm handshake to greet you. With the Therapeutic Gardens there to remind us of him, He Will Not Be Forgotten. I am sure that Saint Peter at the Golden Gates will greet Bill and hand him a shovel and put him to work. From his loving brother-in-law.

You were the wind beneath our wings and the love you shared will go down in history.

Bill Georgeson was a very important young man (25 years old] in the lives of teenage boys in Kamloops British Columbia. His humour,story -telling and '"can-do ' attitude made him a memorable figure in our lives. His influence has been felt long after those scouting years.

Canada was blessed with Bill Georgeson who was a born leader and a visionary. He brought his winning ways and his Scottish ingenuity with him. Over the past20 years I have had the privilege of being a part of several working committees with Bill aas chairman. The town of Comox bestowed the citizen of the year on both Bill and Joy and I was honoured to make that presentation. Comox rotary club awarded Bill with the prestigious Paul Harris award for his untiring community effort throughout the Comox Valley- this was one of many awards. Bill Georgeson was a very highly respected well known gentleman who will be sorely missed but never forgotten by all of us.

It has been 20 years since I met Bill and over that time. I have truly enjoyed Bill's sense of humour. He always appreciated a funny joke and laughed heartily.

Bill originated the formation of our Celtic Club. His wealth of ideas for programs and cultural events associated with the history of Celtic people, generated interest that has made the club known throughout the Comox Valley. He leaves a legacy that will always be remembered.

Bill was one of those rare people who gave his full attention to the people he talked to. He left people feeling better for having been with him. Blessings to you Bill and God speed on your new journey.

With love from your fellow strata residents at Eagle Ridge in the beautiful Comox Valley.

TreesI think that I shall never seeA poem lovely as a tree.A tree whose hungry mouth is prestAgainst the earth's sweet flowing breast;A tree that looks at God all day,And lifts her leafy arms to pray;A tree that may in summer wearA nest of robins in her hair;Upon whose bosom snow has lain;Who intimately lives with rain.Poems are made by fools like me,But only God can make a tree.Joyce Kilmer

Like the fragrance, when a flower is gone, love's memories linger and love lives on.

A life well lived leaves its pattern on the hearts of all.

A true friend, Marie

Will miss you, Uncle Bill
