Obit remembers man as ‘small-time con-man’
An obituary that was published on the Victoria Times Colonist website on Tuesday remembered a man quite differently than many obituaries do… as a small-time con-man with grandiose schemes.
And yes, this is for real.
“What to say about George? Certainly, no one could accuse him of having been a loving son, brother, or father. He’d gladly have stolen the shirt off your back and he was generous to a fault with other people’s money,” the obituary began.
And it just keeps going on from there.
According to the obituary, Ferguson was a retired Protestant minister in Canada.
