To all of George's Family, I only met George a few times in Halifax when he would visit Jennifer, Peter and his grandsons. I enjoyed meeting George and watching my son Sam and George's grandson Aiden play hockey and basketball, along with George and Karen and the rest of the family. If family is one's legacy, George has left behind a wonderful one that I know will miss him dearly. I am genuinely so sorry for your loss. May you take comfort from a lifetime of memories.

When I think of George, a smile comes over my face! I got most of his jokes! He was one of my favorite brother in laws!! George was like a guardian angel for me! Both George and Karen were there for me right away during very difficult times, for Michael, our baby, my mom! Being there was such a comfort! Also, being there for Stephanie was always appreciated and loved! We will always keep him close to our hearts! We hope our condolences will give you comfort always.❤️❤️

The girls admired Mr. Buckle for his dedication and hard work. We all enjoyed many good times competing and travelling. He will definitely be missed.

To Karen, Jason, Jennifer, Heather, Mrs. Buckle (George’s Mom) and Family:
I have been in total shock since I looked at the obituaries and saw George there. I meet George when was in grade 4, 5, & 6. He was my Elementary Gym teacher at Stella Maris School in Benoit's Cove.
There a teachers who you don't forget, and George was one of them. As I grew he would always speak when he ran into me, weather by himself or with Karen. As I read the Obituary and discovered his age, I realized he must have been only fresh out of school when he was that Gym teacher at Stella Maris and I realized at that point. My God the world has not only lost a wonderful man, but also a very young man take way too soon.
It a heavy heart that we offer our deepest sympathy to Mr. Buckle (Georges Mother) to Karen, Jason, Jennifer, Heather and immediate as well as extended family. With the sadness I have been feeling over the past couple of day I can't not even begin to understand what you must be feeling.
But want I can do is to pray that God will give you strength to get through the coming, days, weeks, and months. When the world stop to reflect on a man, and speak so kindly of that person as has been the case since the word of George’s passing became public, we know without a doubt that he has lived a good life and that he is in heaven. So be strong now for each other I'm sure that is what he would want, I know he will be watching over you all and smiling down on you with each with each coming day.
God bless, you are all in our prayers.
Darlene, Mike Noseworthy & Family

We have known George most of our lives, living on the same street of Edinburgh Ave, as his family. We would often have chats when he visited his mom and dad, catching up on news about our own families and life in general. He coached our daughter, Andrea, for a few years, so we spent a lot of time together on the vb courts. Lots of fun and laughs.
We will miss his visits on our street.
Our sincerest condolences to Karen and their family.

I'd like to pass along my sincere condolences to George's mom, Mrs. Buckle, Jason, Jennifer, Heather and all the family on the loss of such an incredible person.
Mr. Buckle had a tremendous, positive impact to me during my formative, teen years.
He had such a gifted ability to help young athletes continually see (and achieve) their potential for growth, which is such a powerful lens to view another person, be it a friend, a colleague, a family-member, a spouse. It's something he taught me through example and something I strive for in my day-to-day.
Thank-you, Mr. Buckle. There are so many fond memories from the volleyball court.
May you rest in peace and may your family find strength in the memories and knowing what a positive impact your life has made on others.

Tomorrow we will gather as a community to support George's family and celebrate his life, with Karen his spouse of 50+ years , his children Jason, Jennifer, Heather, their spouses and his grandchildren. Georges mother Isabelle and his siblings and a community of people who knew George because of his careers, both teaching and coaching. Georges many athletic pursuits saw him touch so many people across the province and country. I have known George since 1964 when we both entered grade 7 at Regina high school. George was an athlete even then. Me not so much. The music teacher gave me the Tuba because it was built like me. We both married nurses from the same graduation class of 1972. I was honored to have been asked to be his best man in 1972. Doris and I will miss his company and friendship. Rest easy my friend. Every swing of the bat from now on is a hit to right field.

My deepest condolences to Karen and the Buckle family. I was fortunate enough to have met George when he was a boarder at our home on Cashin Avenue many years ago. He and Reg Barker would take me to all of the games and after each Saturday night game he would take me with the team to Wong's Restaurant with most of the team. He always paid for my large fries, dressing, gravy and milkshake. While playing in the High School Basketball championship in 1976 he and Karen were gracious to let me stay with them on the last night even though I was billeted elsewhere. Just a few years after I would pitch against the Barons as a member of the Caps team. As I came to the mound I recall looking into the opponent's bench. All I noticed was George giving me a thumbs up. George was a wonderful man and a great role model. Just last year I reached out to him and had a wonderful hour long chat on the phone. Am so glad I did.Thanks George. Rest easy my friend.

Words can only say so much. I know from my many years working with you that George was not only your husband but your very best friend. How fortunate that you lived a beautiful life together and were blessed with with three children who in turn gave you the grandchildren. They stole your hearts, that was evident in the gleam in your eyes while recounting the visits you had with them. George had his health battles and he won them, albeit not for a long enough time. He was quick to ask about others who were fighting similar battles, with genuine concern I’m sure. His sparkling blue eyes and his unique little giggle left a mark on all who knew him. I know that he left a lifetime of precious memories for you all to cherish. God bless you all as you continue to deal with life without him. ❤️❤️

I met Mr.Buckle for the first time as a kindergarten student when I attended St. Gerard's in Corner Brook many years ago. He taught me Phys.Ed for most of my time there and again at Presentation Junior High School. He had such a great sense of humour and I always enjoyed any time in his company. Over the years I would run into George around town and he was always very kind, considerate, and funny. Such a fine human being and an outstanding contributor to the life of our community.
My sincere condolences to the Buckle family.

To Karen, Jason, Jennifer, and Heather.
I was deeply saddened to hear about the loss of George, a wonderful husband, father, brother, brother-in-law, and friend. Please accept my heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathy during this difficult time.
George was an exceptional person, and his presence touched the lives of so many who had the privilege of being in his company to hear his infectious laugh, quick wit, listen to his jokes, and stories, words of encouragement, share his generosity, competitive spirit, and sense of fair play to others. George’s kindness, warmth, compassion, strength, and love of his family will always be remembered, and his absence will be deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
I understand that no words can fully alleviate the pain of losing someone dear, but please know that you are not alone. Lean on your friends, family, and loved ones for support, and may the cherished memories you shared with George provide you with comfort and strength in the days ahead.
If there's anything I can do to assist you during this challenging time, please don't hesitate to reach out. Whether it's a listening ear, a helping hand, or simply someone to be there for you, know that I am here to support you in any way I can.
Wishing you peace and solace as you navigate through this grieving process. May the love and support of those around you bring you some measure of comfort and healing.
With my deepest sympathies,
Tyler Vincent and Tracey Wood

Heartfelt condolences to Karen, Jason, Heather, Jennifer and families and all of the Buckle, Dunphy family. I was saddened to hear of George's illness and ultimately his death. He was truly a kind and gentle man and certainly one of great faith. George's compass was always his God, his family and his determination. Upon these three cornerstones he built a life that reflected love, joy, courage and generosity. Family was everything for George and love and pride shone through when he'd speak of any of you. I remember chatting to George last year at our nursing reunion and the twinkle in his eyes grew brighter when he looked at you Karen and when he spoke of his family. You were his treasure on earth! May George rest in peace and rise with the angels to that place where there is no more pain and suffering. Sending comforting energy and prayers your way. Blessings.

When I first heard the sad news, I was reminded of the one special event that we discovered in the early days teaching together at Presentation Elementary...we were born on the same day. I could never hide my age as George would always be there to divulge the truth.
I'm also reminded of his wonderful sense of humor & how much he could lighten the mood in the staff room with his latest joke.
When I returned home to Corner Brook a few years ago for a visit , I was pleased to see George at church & have the opportunity to chat & catch up.
May your fond & loving memories help ease the pain & bring you comfort at this difficult & sad time.

George could spark up a conversation with anyone. They are all strangers until you begin making connections. I remember sitting in our seats at the Skydome watching the Jays play and George began talking to people around us. “Where you from? Oh yeah, where you go to school? You know so and so?” A few questions later he made the connection that the woman sitting behind us in the Skydome went to nursing school with Karen. Six degrees of George Buckle I called it. He made the world a smaller, better place.
He would often begin a conversation with, “Have you heard this one?” His repertoire of jokes amazed me. He lit up a room with his humour. George was in his element surrounded by family and friends. Family is everything.
“Wanna go for a flick?”
His competitive nature didn’t let up even in our family dart tournaments. He would lull you into a false sense of belief that you might actually beat him this time. Then he would step up to the line, lick the tip of his finger, flick three darts, double 16. He wins again. He would lighten the blow with another joke and a round of beers.
I’m going to miss flicking darts in the basement with you George. We will keep the dart tournaments going without you.
How do you sum up such a kind and generous man. Let me finish with one of the last jokes he told me.
Did I tell you this one?…..My buddy came to visit Toronto. He was driving in and saw the sign, “Toronto left” …So he turned around and went home.
Thank you for welcoming me into your family. It was an honour to be your son in law.
Rest easy George.
Love Dave

It was a very cold Christmas morning (5am) when Rozie and I answered a knock at our back door. Upon opening the door there stood George and Catherine, shivering in the cold wanting to share their Christmas gift with us.
George was wearing his pajamas and on top was a cowboy vest and play guns. Catherine was standing there in her glass slippers and fur stole. No coats on either one of them. What a memory! To us this was very normal since they loved to be together with us. Nothing strange. Thinking back it shows us how important family was to George. He was our go to person, always there.
Our sorrow is deep but even deeper is the knowledge that George left behind a strong legacy of love, courage and grace.
Well done good and faithful servant.
Peace and love,
Brenda and Rosalind

I first met George in minor baseball and we've had a friendship that spans at least 60 years. We were together in school and on the ball fields and basketball court. A good friend, always passionate about his family and his teams that were like family. We had a lot of chuckles and good times together my friend. I shall miss them. RIP.

I would like to pass along my sincere condolences. I played on a volleyball team that George coached and travelled with to Antigonish, NS. I remember him making me feel competent at the game and an important member of the team.
My sister and I looked forward to attending his summer volleyball camps, as he made them enjoyable and had a wonderful sense of humour. He nurtured a love of the game within me and I am grateful.

Judy grew up with George and his family on the 'Heights' and she has many fond memories as well. George will be truly missed. He was one of the best!!

Karen, Jason, Jennifer, Heather, Buckle and Dunphy Family, I am so very very sorry to hear of George’s passing. My sincere condolences to you all on the loss of a wonderful man. I spent many road trips with George and his Volleyball players and enjoyed each and every one. He was an amazing man and coach, who inspired and influenced many athletes throughout his career. His passion for each team and individual was unmatched by his dedication and love for all sports. One of my fondest memories of George took place at the International Children’s Games. I was hosting a beauty night for girls and he did not want to miss out on anything. He sat there and applied everything the girls used including a green mask treatment. It still brings a smile when I think about it. All you could see were the laughing blue eyes, as he had used more than was necessary, (sorry George ), could not resist sharing.
Through all of this travel time his passion and love of sport was unmatched by his love of Karen, Jason, Jennifer, Heather and his beautiful grandchildren. Thought and prayers are with you all.

My goodness. Many of us in the Volleyball world knows George Buckle through and through. Though I was always on a rival team over the years we always had a soft spot for him. The strong rival between the protestant vs catholic schools, in particular Mercer vs Pres caused poor old George to pace back and fourth in front of the bench, gain a few grey hair and go through a few packs of Rolaids for sure...xoxo... condolences to Karen and family ❤️

I remember playing basketball game in Deer Lake and the Buckles were watching. Mr. B got kicked out for being a passionate spectator. Next game, he showed up wearing a paper bag over his head. Stayed the whole game like that. I hope this memory gives you a little chuckle.

My teenage years are littered with fond memories of George’s smile and encouraging words. I spent many years playing volleyball against his very strong Presentation Junior High teams and several years under his direct tutelage with the Humber Valley Volleyball Club and team NL. These were always wonderful experiences and I remember learning a ton from George. Competitive spirit, camaraderie, leadership, and a sense of humour are among the top things that come to mind. You will always have a special place in my heart and I thank you for the countless hours you spent volunteering your time with youth in Corner Brook and surrounding communities. You will be missed!

One of my fondest memories of George was when he was the MC at our wedding in 1989. I still remember his comedic approach that evening when he got a hold of that microphone. He owned it!
RIP George
Greg, Nina, Danielle, and Jillian Baldwin

Pauline and I are saddened to hear of George’s passing. We send our deepest sympathies to Karen and the extended Buckle families. For many years, George and I partnered in golf against Harold Keats and Bill Murphy at Blomidon and we shared many laughs and made many memories. Sorry to see you go so soon good buddy and hope that there’s a golf course in heaven where we’ll play again some day.
