Hogg GeorgeHOGG, George Stephen   – 

December 10, 1931 – March 30, 2024

 

To George, World War II was a childhood adventure, and the Ford Trade School set him on the path to become a mechanical engineer.

 

Emigrating from the UK to Canada, he built a new life by marrying Jo Ann and raising a family.

 

A natural athlete George enjoyed soccer, tennis and early morning runs before heading off to work at Northern Electric/ Northern Telecom for 30 years.

Retirement allowed him to cultivate his interest in gardening, learn to use a computer, and continue to be an avid reader.

 

George was predeceased by his parents, Edward and Catherine; siblings, Ted, Ken, Rene Dixon, Doris Woods and son, Neville.

 

He is survived by his wife, Jo Ann; children, Carolyn, Melissa (Jeffrey Cunningham), and Trevor; sister, Vera Lockyer; sisters-in-law, Felicity Hogg and Nancy Oland and several nieces and nephews.

 

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Friday, April 12th at 11 a.m. at St. Martin of Tours Parish, 1290 McBride Ave., Mississauga. Reception to follow at the church.

 

Many thanks for the kindness and care provided by the doctors and nurses at Credit Valley Hospital.
