Not sure what to say?


So many years but George's teachings are ever relevant and I continue to learn from him. Now, also reaching my 80th year, and a fellow Leo, I. once again, wish to acknowledge his passing in this month of August in 2012. His Taoist teachings have grown in me and still do today.
Thank you, George.

I had the honor of working with George when I was a beginning MDCPS teacher, and placed at Metatherapy Institute. George was a wise and loving man; generous if spirit. I carry lessons learned from him with me still. Condolences to Mo and the rest if his family.

Our souls will always be connected in life and death. Happy birthday,
Love,
Bob

I and many others are sad to hear of the passing of our friend and teacher George Robinson. I spent many peaceful hours at the Loquat Street home in the 1980s listening to George's wonderful talks.

George, I would like to address you directly. I just was googling you and learned of your passing. I was going to call because I missed you so. I had the honor of bringing you to your first Group session at Casriel's. I will go on missing you, your kindness, intelligence and your voice. With much love. Michael Brockman

I just learned of George's passing. He was a bright light in the lives of all who were privileged to know him. It is said that "when a student is ready, a teacher will come". For many of us George was that teacher. I will remember him always.
