Thompson, George Alexander
August 6, 1959 - January 14, 2025
George Alexander Thompson passed away at Brightshores Health Services in Owen Sound on January 14, 2025 at the age of 65.

He was predeceased by his parents William and Olga (nee Young) Thompson, his sisters Ruth Wheildon and Jessie Field, and brother Ronald Thompson.
George was a dear brother of Doris Murray (late Eric Pridham), David Thompson, and Gordon Thompson (Roxanne). He will be remembered by his many nieces and nephews and their families.
George was known for his funny little quips and pick-me-up phrases, which he would give freely and often. He had a positive outlook on life, which allowed him to overcome many health issues. He was passionate about baking and when given the opportunity he would cook up a storm.
Family will receive friends at the United Church in Meaford for the sharing of fond memories and a light luncheon on Saturday, January 25, 2025 from 1 until 3 p.m.
As your expression of sympathy, donations to the Grey-Bruce Diabetes Association, the Kidney Foundation of Canada, or the Heart & Stroke Foundation would be appreciated and may be made through the Ferguson Funeral Home, 48 Boucher St. E., Meaford, ON N4L 1B9 to whom arrangements have been entrusted. www.fergusonfuneralhomes.ca
and I have traveled my very last mile
Forget if you can that I’ve frowned
Remember only my smile…Forgive unkind words I have spoken
Remember some good I have done
Forget I ever had heartache
And remember only our fun…
And sometimes fell by the way
Remember: I fought some hard battles
But had you at the close of my day…Do not grieve for my going
I would not have you sad this day
But in time gather some flowers
And remember the place where I lay…Perhaps in the shade of evening
When the sun paints the sky in the West
Come stand a few moments above me
Remembering only the best.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the remaining Thompson siblings as they navigate another loss. Especially Doris, who was George’s primary caregiver after the death of Grandpa. Doris, know that it is now George’s turn to watch over you. May you find solace and comfort in the coming days.
