Read MoreI only saw George when he came into Fundimensioms in '76-77, when I worked there. He was certainly a legend, even then, and well respected. I had no idea of his career at the time, except that he had started MPC. I would have loved to talk with him about AMT, MPC, and earlier Lionel. I am sure he will be missed by all who knew him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Toteff family in their time of loss. I will be eternally grateful for all the wonderful models that Mr. Toteff created. These marvels opened my eyes to worlds I would not have been exposed to otherwise, and made a rather unhappy and sometimes brutal childhood bearable. Thank you, Sir, for all the wonderful memories!!

He was a mentor to me and although I have not seen him in a very long time, I think of him often. He was a very kind man who had a deep faith in God and was an example to me many times in how he took care of the people around him. My family's thoughts and prayers are with you during...
