The staff at YourTV were saddened to hear about the passing of our friend George Bailey, the face of Niagara Parks and on-air personality at YourTV for many years. George held many volunteer positions with us, from hosting his own show to reporting on numerous features for The Source. His sense of humour and having no fear to try something different always kept us, and our viewers laughing while learning about new and unique things going on in Niagara. We wrap up today's show with one of George's most viewed segments he did with us, a visit with "The Vocca People" when they appeard at Fallsview Casino in 2010. Rest in peace George, and thank you for sharing your passion of Niagara with all of us at YourTV.
