One can only hope to leave the world longing for more of them, and touch as many lives in a positive manner, in death, as this honorable man.

Sherry, I taught both Phillip and Luke in 2nd grade at St.Peter's and always enjoyed talking with George. My 18 year old grandson, Owen Norton, has gone to ECU for their Jazz Camps and may go there to study Jazz next year. Music connects us forever!

Mentor, friend, confidant and teacher. He touched and enriched my life and I am forever indebted. Thank you George. Thank you my friend. ECU School of Music 1974 / 1978. Pax

What a talented, kind man. My prayers for your family.
