Not sure what to say?

I spent three summers during 1966-70 with the Weller family when Captain George Weller was attorney with the Coast Guard, based on Governors Island, New York.

My wife Amy and I knew George and Alice from St. John's Student Parish and I worked with George at the Michigan Attorney General's Office. George was always an inspiration to me. He was always positive and supportive. He was never afraid to act on his convictions or speak up when necessary. He and Alice went horseback riding in the back country of Ireland at a time his contemporaries were sitting in their rocking chairs. He will be remembered and cherished by all ho knew him.

Having worked with George for many years at the Attorney General's Office, I wish to offer my condolences and prayers to George's loving family. He was a truly remarkable man. His legal briefs in particular were legendary for their wit, persuasiveness, and creative originality. I was blessed to have known and worked with him.

I would add kindness to his list of virtues. Glad I had an opportunity to meet him.

i am deeply sorry for your loss james 4-8 draw close to god and he will draw close to you

What a wonderful man, he provided love, light and courage for everyone around him and will be remembered forever. Aloha George
