I am very sad to read about George. I only knew him for 4 months when my husband Pete was in Hospice care. George and Pete had worked together at the city. His visited often and I learned much about him. He had a quiet, kind and compassionate way about him that was comforting to me as he knew what we were facing. I had the pleasure of meeting his son George when I visited him at Hospice. George will be greatly missed.

An inspiration to me, in my better-late-than-never scuba undertaking. Although I only knew him for 4 years, his passion for the sport, left me in awe. Sharing a similar age, he made me believe in my potential. In those 4 short years, we became great friends. I, and the whole of Benthic Scuba, will miss your perpetual smile, and cheery personality. RIP George

I knew George as an usher at Our Lady of Guadalupe. He would sit in the front entrance and chat with people as he came in. I had many interesting conversations with him. I'm so sorry to hear this-he will certainly be missed. My sympathies to his family and friends.
