Sending my sincere condolences to all of George's family. George will always be remembered by many who purchased his fine products in the little village of McDonalds Corners. When one might say McDonalds Corners, many people would say isn't that where George Duncan's mill is located. He was a legend. Take care of each other at this difficult time.

George was such a special guy and we will miss his chuckled laugh and devilish grin:) I have so many great memories of many years ago and will remember him with such fondness and affection. Our thoughts are with you Ruth, and all of your family, as you work through this difficult period. You are not only a strong woman, but indeed a woman of strength…George really knew how to pick 'em when he partnered with you.
Peace and love,
Carolyn and Lorie

I just learned of your father's passing and wanted to extend my sympathy to you. Going to the sawmill was always an outing that resulted not only in the purchase of lumber but the sharing of stories, the exchange of laughter and the gift of wonderful fellowship! You are in my thoughts.

I was very saddened to hear of Georges passing. So many memories of the mill and visiting with the family listening to stories of his experiences that will stay with me always. Such a kind and gentle person.
I'm very upset that work schedules prevented me from leaving Kingston and visiting Sunday and Monday.
My sincere condolences,
Terry

I just was informed of Georges passing. I would like to extend condolences to the family.
Every time I was went to the mill, I always took time to chat it up with George. He always had something wise to share. George always had a smile on his face and welcomed everyone into his office. George was one from the "old school" of doing business, where trust and dedication to perfection ruled.
Our home is full of Georges masterpieces. Windows are adorned with his custom casings. Baseboards decorate the walls. Wainscoting adds a finishing touch to our living room. His skill is exhibited like pieces ofhis art. Memories of George will always surround us in our home.
May you rest in peace George.

To Ruth and the Duncan family,
Just about everything made of wood around our place passed through George's hands, including our house which is entirely clad with lumber from George's mill. And I wonder how many other houses in Lanark County have had George's touch. We're reminded of him daily.
It was a privilege knowing such a good man and we feel deeply for your sorrow.
Sincerely, Bonnie and Dave Jehu
