Dear George and family, our hearts go out to you for the loss of a wonderful person. Nick first met your dad and was always speaking with admiration about him still being a referee. Your mom and dad welcomed Nick and me years ago on thanksgiving in Tremblant where your mom prepared us a traditional thanksgiving diner with sweet patatoes. Their warmth and openness made us feel very welcome. Years later we spend 2 holidays together with your dad and our children on Curaçao. Lovely memories of...

I spent many, many holidays with Uncle George and Aunt Irene, as well as Debbie and George. We had spirited debates over many of life's little pleasures, from ethnic foods to football and basketball. As a child, I attended Painesville Harvey football games with my father and Uncle George.

George and Debbi, Our deepest condolences to you. We have such good memories of your father-his friendliness, sense of humor, and interesting conversations. We are so glad to have known him.

Our deepest condolences! George and Irene were the best neighbors ever! So kind to us, our children, and all the neighbors. I loved hearing about their travel adventures and their family. They were so devoted to each other! Love to all!

I am sorry to hear of Mr. Marko's death. He was my very first principal that I worked under and he was always so patient and kind. He did not hover over your shoulder constantly or interfere in your classroom. He trusted you to know what you were doing and to do it without his interference. He did however, provide wonderful guidance and sage wisdom, especially to a brand new teacher just starting out in her career. I remember my years of working under him fondly. My sympathy to both...

Sending sincere and heartfelt condolences to the Marko family. Especially, classmate George. Remembering your Father from Walnut Jr High School, Painesville, Ohio.

Deb, I'm very sorry to hear about your dad. I remember how nice he was when you lived on Meridan Drive. He was very patient as you helped me with music. Take care

To sorry for your loss
