Son of the late Julius and Mary Kuhl. George is now reunited with his dear wife of 68 years, Sylvia, who predeceased him in December of 2015. Loving father of Linda Mae (Jim) Hamill of Meaford, Lloyd (Catherine) Kuhl of Keady, and Irma Kuhl (Gamble) (Al Speirs) of Chatsworth.

As soon as the children were old enough to drive the tractor (7yrs) he trained them to compete alongside himself at the International Plowing Match. George enjoyed music and loved to dance with his dearest Sylvia, and entertain on the banjo or guitar. During quieter times, he was an avid reader and always kept himself well-informed, not to mention doing research on his fondness for collecting antiques. This hobby would often see him and his friend Stewart Weaver scour the US and Canada looking for the next collectible, or something to tinker with when they got home. George enjoyed the outdoors and would frequently go hunting for deer, coyotes or an occasional wolf. In later years he was blessed with many grandchildren and great grandchildren. His sense of humour endeared him as a devoted grandfather. He will be dearly missed!

Death*He died on 25 June 2007 at age 80; Mr. John Laco, age 80 years, passed away peacefully in the hospital surrounded by his loving family on Monday, June 25, 2007.
was born October 3rd, 1926 in Petromanovoe, Czechoslovakia and came to Canada when he was only 7 years-old. John was one of four children. John came from Czechoslovakia with his mother Mary and older brother Andy to be reunited with his father who had come to Kenora, Ontario 7 years earlier to pursue a better life for his family. He loved travelling, fishing, camping at Sibley, hunting, and family. He especially enjoyed the chaos of Christmas mornings when the large family would gather in his small living room to laugh, open gifts and enjoy each other’s company. He didn’t say much those mornings, he didn’t have to, besides he couldn’t get a word in edgewise. He was a very proud man with a genuine heart, a gentleman through and through and a sense of honour that had him enlist in the Navy at 17.
, while in the Navy, met his wife Mary in Halifax during World War II. After the Navy, John moved to Thunder Bay to pursue a career in welding where he spent 42 years at Great Lakes Paper Mill (Bowater). John and Mary married and had five children raising them in Westfort. John and Mary always managed to work fun into their lives with many camping vacations and road trips. John and Mary were frequently on the dance floor and always the hosts of the party. After Mary’s passing in 1991, John found companionship in Verna Stevenson and they have been best of friends ever since. John’s family would be the first to tell you that he was a great father, grandfather and friend. He will be sorely missed.
family members include children: David Laco, Cynthia (Wayne) Shier, Shelley (John) Simpson, Brad (Lisa) Laco and Bruce (Kristine) Laco, grandchildren: Wade and Colleen Shier, Lara Simpson, Andrew Ryan, John Laco, and Erin and Benjamin Laco, siblings: George (Gaye) Laco, and Mary (Pat) McCart, and best friend Verna Stevenson.
was predeceased by his loving wife of 44 years Mary Laco (nee McKillop), brother Andy Laco and parents Mary and Andy Laco.
