Not sure what to say?

George always had his players back. I know, because in 1973 he trusted me to play Leftfield. Whether I hit a triple, or missed a suiceide squeeze, he never lost faith in me. And made me feel like I'd run through a volacano in a gasoline suit for him!

We haven’t forgotten you George . Rest easy big guy.

Not only did I have George as a teacher several of my uncles did as well . George was a fine teacher and an even better man .

George was a gentle and kind man. We shall always remember his beautiful smile. We have shared many fun times together. His presence will ever be felt in our kitchen, voices mingling in mirthful song, laughter abounding, and silly hats on display. Precious memories of shared friendship remain in our hearts and soothe our souls. Now he is making heaven a better place.

George was such a fine and caring man, a compassionate leader. We deeply regret that it became time for him to move on and know that all of you in the family will hold your many memories of him close.

Please accept our sympathies and deepest condolences

George was a great colleague and a great leader at Brother Rice. I appreciated his low-key, efficient and friendly style. He made us smile! We will all miss him.

George was my Assistant Principal when I taught at Brother Rice. He was a wonderful man and leader. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I remember when I first began my teaching career at Brother Rice thirty-one years ago, George was the assistant principal and later became Dean of Students. When George was Dean, students feared going to see "Sedlacek." (I even feared George my first year at BRHS.) When a student did something wrong, I could hear George reprimanding that student all the way down the hall to my classroom, Room 107. When I went to talk to George about a student one time, I heard him speaking to Joan. This...

I knew George from Br. Rice and without him my high school years would have been very different. George was one of a kind he will be missed.
