Dear George.
You will be sadly missed. We thank you for the time we shared with yourself and Lorna.
Sincere sympathy to your beautiful families..

Sincere sympathy to all of George’s family particularly Geoffrey and Faith who we knew in days gone by. The Close family of Ballarat have many happy memories of George as a friend and co-worker along with his loving Lorna.
Condolences to the wider Searle family. George was a great friend to our Dad, John Cincotta. Dad used to love yakking, smoking, having a culpa with George, talking about farming and solving the problems of the world. What a terrific and clever bloke. May he rest in peace. Angie Jones and the Cincotta family 🙏
