I have many good memories of George. For many years, he worked real estate tax claims here at Chicago Title Insurance Company. I may have created a few of those claims. We spent many hours together trying to figure out how Cook County taxes really worked and how to solve the problems that were inherent in the system. George always had a practical approach. I also remember fondly conversations I had with George and Holly at Company social occasions. George had a lot of good stories. He will be missed.

Uncle George was the grandfather I never had. Who can forget his famous Christmas parties over the years with good food and great company. His zest for life will never be forgotten.

Ed and I are so sad hearing of the passing of George. We had many good times that we will never forget. I'm glad he is with Holly the love of his life again. Our condolences to the family
