We mourn the passing of George Lake
On Tuesday, September 15, Mr. George Lake passed away suddenly. George was a very valued member of AFHS and a good friend to many of us.He was once our President, wrote articles for the Chinook, was active with the Computer SIG, worked as the Treasurer, attended The Master Genealogist SIG meetings, chaired the Brian W. Hutchison Scholarship Committee, chaired the Nominating Committee for several years, and all sorts of other AFHS work. He will be particularly remembered for his work on the bylaws committee, strategic planning, and being the best ‘meeting-runner’ ever. George Lake will be greatly missed.
The service will be held on Monday, September 21, at Park Memorial Chapel, 5008 Elbow Drive SW at 1:00 p.m.
