Although there are no fees to set up Campaigns, a portion of each Donation will be charged as fees for our Services and those of our third party payment processors. Company reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services with or without notice. You agree that Company will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance thereof.

Payment of Donations: In order to contribute to a Campaign, Donors will be required to provide Company information regarding its credit card (i.e., VISA, MasterCard, Discover or American Express) or other payment method. Donors represent and warrant to Company that such information is true and that Donors are authorized to use the credit card or payment method. Donors agree that a certain minimum Donation amount may apply, and that all Donation payments are final and cannot be refunded. Donors agree to promptly update account information with any changes that may occur and to pay the Donation amount that you specify. Donors hereby authorize Company to bill Donors' credit cards and payment methods in advance on a periodic basis until Donors terminate periodic payments through the Platform.
Fees: Company does not charge Campaign Organizers any upfront fees for Campaigns. Company retains a portion of each Donation contributed to Campaigns in the amount of four percent (4%) ("FrontRunner Professional Fee"). A portion of the Donation is payable to our third party payment processors ("Processing Fee").

To the extent you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine

Definitions
“Personal Information” includes both “Personally Identifiable Information” and “Non-Personally Identifiable Information”.
"Personally Identifiable Information" refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are and can be used to identify, contact or locate you. Personally Identifiable Information is requested when you register with us, make a Donation, correspond with us, or otherwise volunteer information, for instance, through the use of "Contact Us". Personally Identifiable Information may include, without limitation, your name, mailing address, telephone number, e-mail address, credit card number, and other identification and contact information.
"Non-Personally Identifiable Information" refers to information that does not identify a specific individual by itself or in combination with other information.

This information may include the Site’s Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") that you just came from, which URL you next go to, what browser you are using, and your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. A URL is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web (‘Web”). An IP address is an identifier for a computer or device on a Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol ("TCP/IP") network, such as the World Wide Web. Networks use the TCP/IP protocol to route information based on the IP address of the destination. In other words, an IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, allowing Web servers to locate and identify your computer. Computers require IP addresses in order for users to communicate on the Internet, browse and shop
“Sensitive Personal Information” means Personal Information that reveals race, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership or that concerns an individual’s health.

In any event, you will receive notice before Company uses or discloses the information for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected.
Choice
Company will offer you the opportunity to choose (opt-out) whether Personal Information is to be disclosed to a third party or to be used for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected or has subsequently been authorized. For Sensitive Personal Information (when applicable), Company will give you the opportunity to affirmatively or explicitly consent (opt-in) to the disclosure of the information for a purpose other than that for which it was originally collected or has subsequently been authorized. Company will treat Sensitive Personal Information it receives from anyone the same as it would treat its own Sensitive Personal Information.

Company will not share your Personally Identifiable Information with third parties in a way that it thinks violates your privacy. The following non-exhaustive list contains examples of how Company shares or could share your information:

These companies may help Company process information, render services to you, manage and enhance customer data, provide customer service, assess your interest in products and services, or conduct research or satisfaction surveys.

George Arthur McMahon
Predeceased by his loving wife of 39 years, Elaine Durocher (1995), his parents Thomas and Mary Margaret (Drudy), his sister Catherine McKeown (Bernard), his brothers Thomas McMahon (Elizabeth Brulét), and Hon. Mr. Justice Joseph McMahon (Jean Pender), sister-in-law Barbara Baynton and brothers-in-law Frank Durocher, Leonard Durocher (Layle), Gary Awad and Emile Theriault; mothers and fathers-in-law Eleanor Durocher and Syl Majchrczak and Evelyn and Emerald Awad.
George graduated from Assumption College with an Hon. B.A. (History) in 1956, earning the Gold Medal in History. He was the recipient of the Samuel MacLaughlin Fellowship and went on to Queen’s University to earn his Master of Arts in 1959. He began his career in education as a high school teacher, first at Assumption High School and then at the High School of Commerce. In 1963, the same year the University of Windsor became a public university, George was recruited by Father Ruth, CSB to join the Faculty of Arts and Science as an assistant professor in the Department of History and as assistant to the Dean of Arts and Science. No one knew what a powerful force and influence he would become over the next 30+ years. During his professional career, George served in a number of official and unofficial capacities at UWindsor. In 1967, he was appointed the University’s first Dean of Students where he helped guide both the university and its students through tough and turbulent times. As Dean, George became a mentor to a host of students who kept in touch with him for many years after their graduation, some even to this day. He held that position for 13 years until his appointment as Assistant Vice President Student Services, during which time he chaired nine Senate Committees and was responsible for overseeing the offices of Student Awards, Student Affairs, Residence Services, Physical Plant, Health Services to name a few. George felt great compassion for students attending the University on a part-time basis and established the Organization of Part-Time University Students (OPUS). His work in the area of student services was indeed extensive and Canada wide. He was the founding president of the Canadian Association of College and University Student Services.
During his long affiliation with Assumption University George was greatly influenced by the Basilian priests who were his teachers when he attended Assumption College, and embraced the School’s motto, Bonitatem et disciplinam et scientiam doce me. TEACH ME GOODNESS, DISCIPLINE, AND KNOWLEDGE. During his tenure at UWindsor, George continued his collaboration with Assumption University and the Basilian Priests he so admired and respected. He was the recipient of various Assumption University awards and honors including the Fr. Eugene Carlisle LeBel Award, the Christian Culture Series Gold Medal and in 2007 he received an Honorary Doctorate of Civil Laws Honoris Causa at Assumption University’s Convocation ceremony.
When appointed Assistant Vice President Alumni Affairs in 1985 George committed himself to reinvigorating the Office of Alumni Affairs and the UWindsor Alumni Association. He dove into his new job with the same energy, enthusiasm and dedication that were the hallmarks of his approach to life. He initiated many programs and services for UWindsor alumni worldwide such as developing Alumni Chapters across the globe, introducing Alumni Affinity programs, such as MasterCard, Home and Auto Insurance, Diploma Framing, re-shaping and re-naming the Alumni Newsletter, “By George,” hosting Alumni events and reunions. Because of his love of Lancer sports, his first priority was to establish the UWindsor Alumni Sports Hall of Fame to recognize and honor outstanding Lancer athletes. In 1986 he formed a non-voting executive committee to oversee the development of the criteria and categories for the Hall along with the formation of a 60-member nomination and selection committee. Five inductees were honored in the 1986 inaugural year and to date 137 outstanding individuals in the athlete and administrator/builder/coach categories have been inducted into the Hall. George was inducted in 2003 as founder of the Hall. Another significant accomplishment was the creation of the Alumni Award for Distinguished Contributions to University Teaching in 1987 in which 64 professors have so far received the award. His efforts sparked renewed interest in the University by alumni and friends living at home and abroad. He was very proud of the fact that the Annual Giving Program reached the $1 million dollar mark under his leadership as AVP Alumni Affairs. It was during these years as head of Alumni operations that George reconnected with alumni who were students during the years when he was Dean, in addition to the many students he taught at the University and at Assumption and Commerce high schools. He was both humbled and proud to know that he was loved by so many.
As many of his co-workers and friends began to take retirement, George became the preferred Master of Ceremonies at their retirement celebrations. His speeches, which contained a mixture of sketchy notes, ad-lib commentary and personal anecdotes about the honoree, often brought the audience to tears and laughter. Upon his own retirement in 1996, President Ron Ianni invited him to write the histories of Assumption College, Assumption University of Windsor and the University of Windsor. The President offered him the use of Dr. Leddy’s office on the 3rd floor of Leddy Library, and for the next 19 years, George embraced this next chapter in his life with “pure zeal” and enthusiastically began his research. He subsequently authored four books relating to the history of the institutions we now know as the University of Windsor. His fifth book would outline Dr. J.F. Leddy’s tenure as President of the University of Windsor from 1963-1984. Regretfully in 2015, due to health reasons, he was unable to finish the book about the man he revered and who was his mentor for over 20 years.
Throughout his professional career, George also volunteered his time to a variety of charities and organizations like the Canadian Air Cadet League of Canada. He joined Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) #310 Squadron in 1947 as a young cadet eventually serving as commanding officer, obtaining the rank of Squadron Leader. He went on to serve as Regional Director of the Air Cadet League’s Ontario Provincial Committee, moving on to Area Vice Chair (Western Ontario) and finally as a member of the National Board of Governors of the Air Cadet League of Canada. George was a founding member of Wing #412 of the Royal Canadian Air Force Association in Windsor and served in all executive positions in the Wing, including terms as its President. He was elected to the positions of National Director, National Vice-President and President of the RCAFA. In recognition of his outstanding work with Air Cadets, George was awarded the 1967 Centennial Medal, the Canada 125 Medal, the Queen’s Jubilee Medal and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal from the Canadian government, the Ontario Award for Volunteerism, and the Distinguished Service Medal Award from the Air Cadet League of Canada. He very much enjoyed his long association with the National Council of Veteran Associations in Canada as well as the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 594. He was a dedicated supporter of the Legion’s annual Poppy Campaign, standing outside for hours every year with a poppy box in hand. He loved the opportunity to meet people who stopped by to make a donation. In recognition of his military achievements, in 2002 he was invested into the Sovereign Military Order of the Temple of Jerusalem (Knights Templar).
George also served the Windsor community at large. He served as board member and Chair of the Diocesan Roman Catholic High School Board for Metropolitan Windsor at F.J. Brennan High School, was a member of the Windsor Media Council and was Co-Chair of the Windsor Chapter of the Canadian Council of Christians and Jews. His involvement as founding president of Autism Services Incorporated resulted in a substantial donation from the Toldo Foundation, and his service to United Way included chairing the personal gifts division. In addition to his volunteer services to these and other charities and organizations, George also served his Church in many ways too numerous to mention. A proud and devout Catholic, George relied on his faith in God to see him through difficult times. We have no doubt that by now the words, “Well done good and faithful servant!” (Matthew 25:23) would have welcomed him into his Heavenly home.
One of the proudest moments in George’s life occurred when he was nominated to be a Torchbearer in the Vancouver 2010 Olympics Torch Relay, carrying the Olympic Flame in Windsor on December 23, 2009. He was thrilled to accept the honor and recounted how he felt like a “rock star” as he arrived at the foot of Ouellette and Riverside Dr. to a roaring crowd of fans.
Although George was involved in all of these activities, he made sure there was time for family. He was present for almost all of the sporting events of his children and grandchildren and never missed a baptism, confirmation, school graduation, dance/music recital, birthday, or any occasion that was special to his grandchildren. He was our Pops and we will miss his overwhelming presence whenever we gather together as a family. He was proud, he was loved, and he was heaven blessed!
On behalf of the entire family, I wish to extend sincere gratitude to the Alzheimer’s Society for their amazing support and assistance in teaching us how to be with George during the early days of his diagnosis and throughout his dementia journey, and to his physician Dr. Sharon Doyle for her excellent care for so many years. We also express our thanks to the staff at Seasons Oak Park LaSalle and to the Villages at St. Clair, particularly Dr. Chan, Nurse Practitioner Shawna and the nurses and PSWs who loved and took good care of George over the past five years.
Donations in memory of George may be made to: the Alzheimer Society of Windsor Essex County, 364 Lancaster RCACS (Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron), the Poppy Fund of the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 594, or Autism Services Incorporated—the Bruce Awad Summer Program.
Rest in peace, George. You were my best friend and mentor in life, and in death you will forever remain in my heart. Thanks for the memories and for being my loving and supportive husband for 20 years, come September.
Due to Covid19 restrictions, a memorial Mass and service will be planned at an appropriate time when it is safe for family and friends to gather openly to celebrate George’s life.
