Not sure what to say?

You have my deepest sympathy Tom. We have also lost our honorary Campers Five father. I have fond memories of his laugh/smile when he pulled one over on us. Because of his enthusiasm, he seemed one of us rather than an adult. Like your dad, I'll never grow up.

You will be greatly missed George! Thoughts and prayers to the Kishman family.. xoxo

George was a great guy, always had a smile and a good word for everyone. He will be missed. Our deepest sympathy to all of the Kishman family. Our prayers are with you.

My sympathies on George's passing. He was a good and gentle man who did indeed make a difference in this world. George will be remembered for his kindness, unselfishness and willingness to help others and his community. He was also a great storyteller with many tales from his varied life experiences. He will be sadly missed by all. As George would say - GO BUCKS!!!

Only a great man like George knew how to light a fire under The Big 8 Ad Group.I saw that first hand starting in 1973 when the group would meet at McLains across the hall from Advertising. George was the likeable guy with the bow tie and the glowing personality.Will never forget your dad.
Sincerely, Pete & Dina

I am sorry for the loss of your father. George was an incredible man. He was an inspiration for me and many of the people who worked for him at Kishman's IGA in Carrollton, Ohio. Peace be with you and your family during this difficult time.

Prayers for the Kishman family

Thinking of you and your family during this time of loss. I remember George for his positive air and his infectious enthusiasm for customer service.
