Alden Weeks - " It was a wonderful day in O'Leary when Dr. George Dewar decided to come here and practice medicine. I just can't imagine this community surviving without him, but I suppose someday that will happen. He has been such a tremendous catalyst for the development of the entire total museum community in O'Leary. Without Dr. George none of this would have been possible. For me it has been a distinct pleasure to work with Dr. George over the many years of involvement with the O'Leary Library and Museum Association Ltd."
