Not sure what to say?

Every Friday we still reminisce! Miss you, Vicki and Cindi

Hey George I´m going to miss you! From the first few days at PCA! You were a true friend! We muddled through our foundation courses. We majored in different subjects but we´re still diehard friends! We spent many hours listening to music and going to concerts! Godsend my friend on your journey! Bless your family and all be well! Gregor Pattison

George´s heart was as big as his artistic talent. His creativity was unparalleled and his thoughtfulness is now among my most cherished memories. Rest in peace, dear friend.

I knew George since the 70´s and so happy we were able to keep in touch through all these years. He was a true artist, in every way, encouraging and inspiring many others to be true to their ideas. I am an artist because of his example. Love you George.

I'll always remember the Brobst Street gang. My sincere condolences to the entire Arentz family.

I had the privilege of meeting George at Wawa on the corner of Shillington Avenue, ( not sure of the cross street as I just started driving the area), however, we had a wonderful 10 minute conversation. I was left knowing that I would see him again, but not like this! We Shared our Cancer stories, and we prayed for each other's health! My condolences go out to his family and friends. He felt like a truly good person!

What a beautiful memorial of words. Our family knew him for just a short moment. I will be forever touched by his kindness. When my sons bike was stolen, George had gotten my son a bike and fixed it up. He gave both of my children gifts for Christmas and birthdays. We were blessed to have met George.

There were many memories to share when we went to his art shows. He was a great artist and friend! We enjoyed Friday nights with him and Cathy. He will be greatly missed. Vicki and Cindi

So sorry to hear of George's passing. Met George (aka man) In early 1960s. Too many wonderful memories that always bring a big smile. Scouting, sports and his artist talents, simply amazing. RIP George. Old neighbor!
