<div itemprop="description">Founder of Gator Custom Windows Ltd. <br /> <br />It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of a true gentleman, Georg Schaffrath, of Scarborough, on Sunday August 16, 2015 at Ina Grafton Gage Nursing Home (IGGH), at the age of 82 after fighting a courageous battle with Alzheimers. Beloved husband of Irmgard for 58 years. Adored father of Beatrice (Greg), Roy (Mary), and Harold (Sheila). Treasured by his grandchildren, Billy (Heather), Michael (Ashley), Sara (Eddie), Alex, Kristen and Kendra and his great-grandchildren Blake, Kole, Gavin, Abby and Mateo.

Georg leaves behind his many nieces and their families. Georg was born and raised in Germany and arrived in Canada in 1953 at the age of 20. Georg was a Carpenter and Iron Worker. In 1978 Georg started his own window &amp; door company, known as &ldquo;Gator Custom Windows Ltd.&rdquo; Georg was a conscientious, caring and hard worker who taught us how to enjoy life through family, work and to travel. Georg&rsquo;s dreams and business will continue to flourish through his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Georg&rsquo;s family, extended family &amp; friends will always remember his smile, strength, courage, humour, positivity &amp; enthusiasm for life. Special thank you to the staff of IGGH.
