I attended Farragut with George....I had no direct dealings with him, but I am aware that he was well respected, and was of high moral character. My sincerest condolences to all his family and friends...may he R.I.P.

I was in the class of 1969. A year before George. ...George was a gentleman and an officer Juior BMC cadet.. Good man.....VAHALLA GEORGE! Rick Sanders 69' A.F.A...

George was my roommate my senior year at Farragut. He was a great friend and with his cool demeanor, helped smooth out my sometimes volatile tendencies (like punching out a tree). I became a corvette enthusiast because of him and his 1965 Stingray. I eventually fulfilled a promise to myself to own a vet and eventually had two thanks to George. Maybe someday we will meet again in the hereafter and compare notes on cars and the fun times we had at AFA. Until then, Rest in Peace my friend.

You will be greatly missed by all,rest easy sorry for your loss

Bridget, may God give you peace and comfort in all the days to come as we know how much...
