      GEORGE JOSEPH OVEREND
      The Orillia Packet & Times, Aug. 24, 1939

      GEORGE JOSEPH OVEREND - Another of Orillia\'s prominent and well-known citizens, Mr. George Joseph Overend, died on Saturday, at the Soldiers Memorial Hospital, in his eighty first year. Mr. Overend came to Orillia with his family about forty-six years ago, and in the intervening years has figured prominently in the affairs of the town. For over twenty years Mr. Overend was secretary of the Orillia Board of Trade, and was Vice President for one year. He was also Secretary of the East Simcoe Agricultural Society, and Secretary-Treasurer of the Orillia Horticultural Society at one time. It is only for the past year that Mr. Overend has ceased to take an active part in business life. In March, his wife died, and since that time Mr. Overend failed noticeably. He had undergone two serious operations this year from which he did not seem to have the will to recover. Mr. Overend was born at Price\'s Corner, on July 11, 1859, a son of the late William and Sarah Overend. Following his marriage in 1887 to Anna Marie O\'Donnell, of Brechin, they moved to Burke\'s Falls, where Mr. Overend was employed as foreman of the Train Lumber Company; five years were spent at Longford Lumber Company and the Rama Timber Timber Transport Company. About forty-six years ago he and his family moved to Orillia, and he built the home on John street and has resided there ever since. For seventeen years after coming to Orillia Mr. Overend was employed as a traveller for a number of firms; nearly thirty years ago he went into the insurance and real estate business, which is being carried on today by his son, Mr. Harold J. Overend. Mr Overend leaves to mourn his loss a family of five sons and three daughters, Harold J. Overend, Orillia; Fred Overend, Peterborough; Clarence Overend, Orillia; Miss Aileen Overend, Toronto; Mrs. Frank C. Foy (Edna), Toronto, and Miss Camilla Overend, Orillia, all present for the funeral. Albert A. Overend, of Vancouver, and George Overend, of Calgary, his other two sons, were not able to be here. He also leaves ten grandchildren, and a brother, Mr. Joseph Overend, of Chicago. Deceased was a charter and honorary member of the Knights of Columbus of the Orillia and Peterborough Councils. The funeral was held on Tuesday morning from his residence, to the church of the Angels Guardian, and was largely attended by friends of the surrounding country and from distant points. Mass was celebrated by the Rev. Father Doyle, assisted by the Rev. Father Gilmour Kay, of Peterborough, a nephew of the deceased, and by the Rev. Father M. Nealon, of Uptergrove. Interment was made at St. Michael\'s cemetery, Orillia. Pallbearers were J.J. Murphy, Donald McIsaac, A. Leahy, John Smith, A. Arbour and L. Pratt.
