Dena, Cheryl, Jodi, Ricky & Vanessa:
I am so sorry for your loss. I worked with George at SUPSHIPNN from 1981 until he retired. After retirement we kept in touch by going out for breakfast and our mutual friend Hap. I hope you find peace and comfort in your memories of a good man. Circumstances prevented me from attending the services but I know George is watching over us all.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Family,
Circumstances prevented me from attending the saturday evening viewing, but I knew George well
during the seventies, we worked
together and had occasional social
times together,. golf,etc. I
considered him one of my best friends at that time. We lost contact with
each other after I retired in 1988. but I will always remember him as a
fun guy to be around, he enjoyed life.

I'm sorry to hear of George's passing. I knew George during his baseball days in HHS. I played in the band. Even though I have not seen George since then, I have thought of George many times. What a nice boy and I'm sure a man. God bless each of you.

I send my condolences and prayers during this time. I bowled with George for many years at the lanes in Phoebus at the Mayflower Lanes and played baseball in that area when he was a super pitcher. He was a good friend then but I have not seen him since I left that area. God Bless.
