Not sure what to say?

George was a wonderful person whom i miss greatly. I always enjoyed spending time with him and Trudy, every meeting would bring out a new story from his past. I enjoyed your stories George and miss hearing them. I know you are looking down on us all but I wish you could have met your Great Grandaughter, she is a Beautiful and amazing little girl! I know she would have loved to hear your stories.

You may be gone but you will never be forgotten! Your memory and stories live on with...

I will always remember your wonderful stories! I loved listening to them on the way home from school, or while me and granny were playing cards. I am very happy we got to spend a lot of time together while I was growing up! You are very missed! You were right, you do have a great-grandaughter. You knew before we did! I know you will be watching over her!

Pop,
Many memories come to mind as I reflect upon the past years, probably the best and brightest are how you and Mom were always there whenever needed to offer a helping hand or needed encouragement.
It was also great to see, later in life, that spark in your eyes as you flirted with Mom, bringing back that spark that must have burned brightly when you both were younger. It was also great to see, how you cared for and protected Mom as your lives moved into the times that you...

Its Father's Day. Dad there are a lot of memeories and Amanda, Eric, and I miss you! I think of bandanas in the park as we pretended to be pirates. I think about all the stories!! The NY House, your Porsche, your HR stories at Sperry, your travel stories. I think of your example as a volunteer...tickets at CCC, SVDP for 20+ years, the Christmas Tree sale, umpiring in the Florida heat....I will always remember your love for books (which Amanda shares). I know you were a man who provided for...

I'm very sad to hear of George's passing. I worked with him at ECI from 1979 until he retired and always found him to be honest, extremely competent and a true gentleman. We exchanged many tales and experiences. I moved away from the area and lost contact; but, I never forgot his kindness and warmth. I counted him as a friend and wish his family my condolences. Cherish the memories!

I used to work with George at E-Systems. He was always fun to work with and gave me some valuable guidance which I have used throughout the years during my career at Raytheon. Please accept my sincere condolences. Sylvia Christy

I had the pleasure of knowing George as he became a part of our family when my sister, Julie, married Karl. This was a most fortunate occurrence, as I thoroughly enjoyed our time together, particularly when he talked about the many projects and programs in which he participated in at Sperry. He had an affinity for detail and was a great conversationalist and negotiator. I'm sure both served him well during his working career.

On behalf of my mom (Dorothy) and dad (Tom) as well...

"Noshing" at one of George & Trudy's favorite restaurants

I have so many “fond” memories of George I don't know where to begin. Thus, a picture is worth a "thousand words". George loved to "reminisce” about life… especially while “noshing” at one of his favorite restaurants. Over the years we have learned all about George's life with the many stories he shared (which included such vivid details that it always seemed like it just happened yesterday). We will always cherish you – George – and savor all of these memories. We LOVE you and the...

One of our favorite memories was meeting you for the first time at Christmas 2008. Even though we didn't know you very well, it was very nice to meet you. You and your wife, Trudy, inspired me to keep on going after losing my husband in November 2008. I know you will watching down over Trudy and the rest of your family from heaven.
R I P my friend and may God be with you and your family from this day forward.
