GEORGE WAS A GOOD CHRISTIAN WHO LOVED HIS LORD AND HIS FAMILY. HE IS MISSED.

The impact Mr. Grosse had on so many of our lifes, will live on through us.

To the Family of Mr. George Grosse,
We are just finding out about Mr. Grosse. My brother, Wilbur Tony Fields, Jr. called and told me he found out Mr. Grosse passed away last year. We are so sorry for your loss and wish we could have been present to properly say goodbye. My father, Wilbur Tony Fields, Sr often spoke of Mr Grosse. He spoke so highly of him, I called Mr Grosse when my father passed away and asked him to say a few words. He said yes with no hesitation. I can just hear the...

Aunt Corene, Lynn, Barry, Doug and Family,
You are all in our prayers. Such a blessing was this man. A man that set a positive example, in the numerous roles he had to fulfill. He wore many hats, juggled multiple responsibilities, followed God's road map, worked constantly, practiced the highest degree of integrity, mentored so many in his sound and wise advice and never lost touch with his roots.

I Wii always love you! You were a blessing! I know now that you are with Our Lord having a super time! Until we meet again!

George was a true man to God and people. He was a very good news Gabor to us and sometimes gave us very good advice. We miss seeing him out riding his golf cart. Be loss to everyone.

Mr Grosse was a true Southern Gentleman. A genuine man who deeply cared for others. I pray for the family as they each go through their journey of grief, learning to go on without his physical presence. Look all around you, you will see the type of wonderfully blessed man that he was. Carry on his legacy.

A true statesman. A gentleman. The few times I was fortunate to be around him I felt I was in the presence of something bigger and better. Mr Grosse will be missed. RIP Sir

It is not possible to be a better person, friend, relative, employer, whatever. I knew him for years as one of his accountants and am just devastated to just now find out about his passing. My deep regrets to his family and all else who knew him. I can't believe it.
