Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry I was unable to pay my respects. You were highly respected by everyone that knew you. Thank you for all you have done for me and my father. The heaven's were blessed upon your arrival. Don Lenhof Jr.

Rest in peace George! Thank you for helping me find a way!

Always wanted to meet the guy! had lots of very cool hand written notes from him, helping me keep the lid on the graphics department in Charlotte. I try to operate with his work ethic always. What a motivator and mentor. I was told by others I might not ever know he was even around, because he like to work with his employees, and be there for them. He impacted me, allowing me to see impossible things as possible.

George was a competitor and colleague as well but most importantly a trusted friend. He was one of the few people in this world that you could trust with complete confidence. I enjoyed every minute that I had the opportunity to spend with him. He could be taught times but funny as well. George will always be an unforgettable character in my life.

George J Budig was an amazing man! I worked for George for many years at Geo E Fern Co. When my husband passed away I received a personal note from George saying he was so sorry for my loss and that my Fern family was there if I needed anything! That note meant so much to me that he would take the time out of his busy schedule to send his condolences! I will never forget that and have shared that story about him many times over the years! May you RIP! Prayers for your family

Cindy, my deepest sympathy in your loss. May the memory of your Father give you comfort, and his legacy live through you all. He will be with you watching over you.

A great man! He will be missed.
