Your heart was so tired,

Your bones were so sore.

Your body just couldn’t 

Go on any more.

Your soul is at peace now,

And your body is at rest.

As much as it hurts,

We know it’s for the best.

We are so lucky

To call you our Dad.

You were the best 

We ever could’ve had.

You taught us so much

And raised us right.

We understand Dad,

You could no longer fight.

You were so sincere,

A kind-hearted soul.

As a father, husband, and grandpa,

You fulfilled your roles.

To protect us, and love us 

And also to provide.

Whatever we needed,

You were always by our side.

You made Momso happy,

And took care of her till the end.

I’m not so sure,

Our hearts will ever mend.

But one day again,

We will see you up there.

We can all walk together

Without a single care.

Our dearest Dad,

Thank you for all. 

You gave us everything

But had to go answer your call.

We will see you again,

When it’s our turn to fly. 

Until then, we will think of you,

When we look to the sky.

George Brenko, 79, passed peacefully surrounded by family at Vernon Jubilee Hospital in the early morning hours of October 1st, 2019.

We would like to pass on our sincerest thanks to the doctors, nurses, and staff who cared for him at VJH during the last two months of his life. We are forever grateful for your care and compassion. 

George will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
