FUSCO, George Robert, passed away October 11, 2024 at the age of 89 years. Survived by his loving wife Helen of 52 years and predeceased by his daughter Coleen.
George was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. As a young man, he came to Canada and joined the Toronto Boxing Club 1953-1955 and sparred with George Chuvalo.

In 1972 he and his wife returned to live in South Africa for six years.
