Sincere thanks are also extended to John and the team at W.G. Catto Funeral Directors for their exceptional care, compassion and professional organisation of the funeral arrangements.

Many thanks to Wendy Tonner for her wonderful service, which reflected George so truly. Her warm, heartfelt and often humorous tribute captured his character perfectly.

The family would also like to express their sincere gratitude to the team at the Lhanbryde Village Hall Cuppa Café for all their hard work in preparing the hall, providing the teas and refreshments, and ensuring everything ran so smoothly. Their efforts in setting up, serving and tidying afterwards were greatly appreciated and contributed to a warm and welcoming gathering for family and friends.

Finally, thank you to everyone who attended the funeral and helped give George such a fitting and memorable farewell. Thank you also for your kind and generous donations, which amounted to £865.24. Your support, kindness and generosity have been greatly appreciated by the family.
