It is with great sadness that
we announce the passing of George Caissie, 81,

Catherine, as well as several nieces and
nephews. Besides his parents, he was predeceased by his
sister Jacqueline and his nephew

George received a degree in
Civil Engineering from the University of New Brunswick in 1964. Prior
